OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FOR ASSETS THAT MUST GENERATE WITH SAFETY AND CONTINUITY

O&M FOR SOLAR, WIND AND HYDROPOWER

COTESA delivers specialised Operation and Maintenance solutions for hydroelectric plants, photovoltaic solar farms and wind farms. We combine operations engineering, maintenance, automation and asset management to support the availability, safety and performance of these facilities.

Operating nationwide with the support of a 24/7 System Operations Center, we serve different operating models and the specific needs of each project. Maintenance is carried out in step with operations, in predictive, preventive and corrective modes, and every contract includes a contingency plan for restoring systems affected by incidents.
