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
A new project will develop cheap battery systems that, by integration with wind turbines and solar cells, will increase the stability of the electricity grid and facilitate a higher share of
EEEHy aims to generate the knowledge that will result in the demonstration of a game- changing high temperature and pressure alkaline electrolyzer. The novel materials, electrode architecture, stack
Renewable energy to be stored in floating flywheels. Better magnets can help store renewable energy from solar cells and wind turbines in magnetic flywheels. The new technology for energy storage
The MultiCon project aims to foster a paradigm shift in wind energy by developing disruptive storage solutions based on a novel Power Management System which allows monitoring and control of batteries
A three-dimensional chemical mapping of active plastic PV cell layers has generated new knowledge of degradation causes for PV cells. Based on the mapping, more stable PV cells were made, which in
The project generated results in selected areas of flexible multibody wind turbine modelling. Monte Carlo statistical response simulations and failure probabilities require significantly reduced
In DTU's and LM Wind Power's wind tunnel, the project performed several measurements of the flow behind vortex generators (VG). The project proved that the induced vortices effectively counteract
The project highlighted markets and instruments aimed at promoting renewable energy in Denmark, the EU and internationally, while also identifying key risks and uncertainties related to renewable
The project will continue developing a computer model capable of predicting defect concentrations and distributions as a function of parameters during the float-zone process that produces silicon for
The project aimed to find new electrode materials for hydrogen development able to replace the costly and rare platinum normally used in PEM fuel cells. The project succeeded in demonstrating that
By setting up an experimental facility - SYSLAB – the project studied aspects of the basis for distributed resources such as wind turbines, photovoltaics and not least consumers participating in power
The project aimed substantially to strenghten the scientific basis for the wind turbine sector in general with particular focus on the Danish sector’s position in offshore wind farms. To meet these
Using catalysts, enzymes and bacterial cultures, the project uncovered promising methods for converting biomass into more valuable products such as fuels in the form of ethanol, methane and hydrogen
The feasibility of utilizing energy crops (willow and miscanthus) and agriculture residues (wheat straw and corn stalker) in an anaerobic digestion process for biogas production was evaluated
