The project will design and test innovative blade tips for wind turbines which can increase the existing rotor size, producing up to 8% more energy per year, while regulating loads in a smart way.
Every wind farm project requires accurate resource assessments to evaluate the energy yield and profitability, but for projects in hilly, mountainous or forested areas the measurement campaigns can be
Small cracks in wind turbine bearings are responsible for some of the most expensive wind turbine failures. Today, there are no certain methods of preventing the cracks, but a new project led by DTU
The objective is to improve the design basis for large wind turbines by measuring wind and turbulence profiles at high altitude above a flat ground using modern instruments. The project will study
The vision is that the increased research on main wind turbine uncertainties and risk & reliability will lead to less conservative designs and more cost-efficient wind energy. Therefore, careful
The usage of new reinforcement fibre and resin systems allows for novel forms of blade design, cost optimisation and production methods that significantly reduces the production time.
