On November 26, 2024, a fire broke out in a turbine at Iberdrola’s Mel wind farm in Areia Branca, Brazil. Two workers took shelter in a safe area before being rescued by helicopter and sent to the hospital, from which they have since been discharged. Iberdrola’s local subsidiary, Neoenergia, has launched an investigation into the cause of the fire, which was quickly controlled by internal firefighting teams. The estimated losses from the fire are expected to range between $2 million and $5 million.

On November 26, 2024, a fire broke out in a turbine at Iberdrola’s 20 MW Mel wind farm in Areia Branca, Brazil. The fire led to the swift rescue of two workers, who had taken shelter in a designated safe area. The workers were rescued by helicopter and flown to a nearby hospital for further medical examinations. Fortunately, they have since been discharged, and their condition is reported as stable.
Iberdrola’s local subsidiary, Neoenergia, immediately activated its emergency response plan, and internal firefighting teams were able to control the fire quickly. In addition, the Military Fire Department of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, along with the Integrated Air Operations Center, provided immediate support, ensuring the workers’ safe evacuation.
Neoenergia has launched an investigation into the cause of the fire, and the company is awaiting the results of the report to determine the exact factors leading to the incident. Although the cause remains unclear, the company has stated that it is providing all necessary support to the employees affected.
The estimated financial losses from the fire are expected to range between $2 million and $5 million. This includes potential damage to the turbine, production downtime, and additional operational costs. The cost of replacing or repairing a wind turbine can range between $1 million to $3 million, depending on the extent of the damage, and any downtime could lead to significant economic losses for the wind farm.
This incident highlights the importance of early fire detection systems in wind turbine operations. Early detection can prevent catastrophic fires and reduce operational risks. Harness the power of Planck Vision Systems with the TRX600 robotic system, which offers unparalleled support for wind turbines in both new constructions and retrofitting projects. With our specialized thermal imaging technology, turbines can be continuously monitored with unmatched precision.
Our continuous monitoring system detects anomalies before they escalate into disasters, ensuring timely intervention and risk mitigation. This approach helps guarantee long-term safety for turbine operations, minimizing potential losses and improving overall operational efficiency.
