Abstract
The reliability of modern onshore wind turbines is at present at an acceptable level. This means that, assuming 100 % site accessibility and implementing a well-organised efficient maintenance strategy, most onshore wind turbines show availability levels of above 98 %. In other words the yearly downtime due to service and repair is less than 1 week.
