Accelerate Time-to-Revenue with ComRent

ComRent is the only load bank rental company in the U.S. with solutions designed specifically for testing wind farms. Not only do we have a comprehensive commissioning solution, we also have a 100 percent success rate meeting the strenuous 600+ hours of sustained load testing that wind farms require.

We bring a complete commissioning solution that includes resistive and reactive load banks, generator and switchgear to your wind farm when and where you need them. The result: less guesswork and more control over pre-grid commissioning to prove your wind farm on schedule and start generating revenue as soon as the grid becomes available.

The power behind ComRent becomes apparent in this example of a 150MW wind farm:

• The cost to commission a 150MW wind farm is approximately $600k
• It takes approximately 2 months to commission the farm
• This size farm will generate anywhere between $2.2M TO $16m in revenue (at $80/MW hour)
• That’s a 4 to 24 times return on your commissioning investment

Pre-grid commissioning with ComRent enables you to start generating revenue from the moment the wind farm is connected to the grid. By including load bank commissioning in the project budget, the risk and costs of project delays due to not having access to the grid is eliminated.
