In 2024, we have progressed on this action by ordering more than 300 refurbished yaw brake calipers on our East and West Coast hubs in the UK. Calipers are used to hold the nacelle in place when the brakes are applied and are a part of the hydraulic system. For each caliper we reuse, we also lower the cost of our wind farm maintenance. In addition, we have set up refurbishment loops for several other minor components with a long leadtime to reduce the risk of lost production.

Our collaborations with Plaswire and SOLARCYCLE are examples of how we engage with partners on our material resource-related impacts. Over the past few years, we have successfully carried out several small-scale recycling pilots in the US and the UK and will continue to leverage retired blades and panels from our assets to help accelerate the maturation of promising, innovative, recycling technologies and solutions in our markets going forward.
