Our Story
Born and raised in Germany, I have always been driven by a passion for engineering and innovation. After studying Construction Engineering, I made the decision to serve in the military, seeking diverse experiences across various technical fields. This journey not only honed my skills but also fueled my fascination with electrical systems, which ultimately became the cornerstone of my career.
With a wealth of knowledge gained from working in the solar and wind energy sectors, I established EcoVison LLC to combine my expertise with cutting-edge infrared thermography technology. Over the years, I have observed a critical need to reduce maintenance, downtime, and repair costs caused by system failures. I firmly believe that proactive thermal imaging inspections are key to addressing these challenges, and I am committed to being an asset in protecting your energy systems.

EcoVision LLC Case Study
Client: Confidential Wind Farm Operator (Nebraska)
Service: Full-Scope Infrared Inspection – Wind Turbine (Interior & Exterior)
Date: March 2025
Objective
The client contracted EcoVision LLC to perform a non-invasive thermal inspection on a Nordex N117 wind turbine. The goal was to identify early-stage faults in electrical and mechanical components, both inside the nacelle and at ground level, to improve preventive maintenance and avoid unplanned downtime.
Scope of Inspection
Interior (Nacelle & Tower)
Generator windings and bearings
Power converters & switchgear
Control panel terminals and cables
Yaw motors and hydraulic systems
Exterior
Tower base and access door (for thermal insulation gaps)
Ground-level transformer pad
Blade root area (visible sections for delamination or heat anomalies)
Ground cables and junction boxes
Inspection Process
Conducted during low wind speeds under controlled safety conditions.
Utilized FLIR T-Series infrared camera with thermal resolution.
FLIR Drone UAS thermal imaging.
Collected over 150 thermal images and videos during a 2-hour session.
Compared thermal anomalies against baseline operational temperatures provided by the turbine OEM.
Key Findings
1. Overheating in Power Converter
Infrared scan revealed localized heat buildup (~45°C above baseline) on an IGBT module.
No external alarms triggered yet — caught before failure.
2. Hot Spot on Generator Bearing Housing
Slight temperature spike near the non-drive end bearing.
Indicated early-stage lubrication degradation or misalignment.
3. Loose Terminal in Ground Control Panel
Detected elevated temperature (+28°C) on a neutral terminal in the base control panel.
Risk of voltage instability or eventual arc fault.
4. Insulation Gap in Tower Base
External scan showed a distinct cold bridge along a vertical weld seam.
Recommended weatherproofing and thermal sealant reinforcement.
Recommendations
Immediate service on power converter to avoid failure under high load.
Schedule preventive maintenance for generator bearing inspection and lubrication check.
Retighten and torque-check all base control panel connections.
Reseal tower base insulation to minimize energy loss and environmental exposure.
Results & Value Delivered
Downtime Avoided: Caught converter overheating before component failure.
Maintenance ROI: Early intervention prevented at least several thousand dollars in potential emergency repair costs.
Efficiency Preserved: Thermal sealing issue addressed before cold air impacted turbine performance.
Data for Future PM: Delivered a detailed thermography report with prioritized service actions.
