This main objective of this project is to demonstrate procedures that can quantify the risk of failure, the remaining structural reliability and the maintenance costs upon extending the life of
IEA Wind Task 28” on Social Acceptance of Wind Energy Projects is a working group involving several countries, including the USA, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Japan, Ireland, Italy and the
Because these hours are incoherent and unpredictable, a constant availability of power is imperative and as a result the generator has to be operating around the clock. Thus Power Pack will contribute
A wind turbine power converter includes power modules mounted on cooling plates, which cool the component. The heat is transferred to the ambient by use of a water circuit and an air cooler. The
The project has generally the aim to support Denmark's participation in the "IEA Wind Energy R & D Implementing Agreement" in 2018 through participation as Alternate member in the Agreement Steering
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
This project is the first phase in the development of an advanced test facility which will enable the wind power industry to develop and test new grid connection solutions, and validate the grid
The objective of the project has been to develop and commercialize nacelle-LIDAR technology for power performance verifications such that the expensive and often difficult use of met masts offshore
The project dealt with: optimal use of vortex generators, VGs, that are presently used on most wind turbine blades. Their main effect is to delay separation in the inner part of the blades where for

It is a concern in wind energy that wind turbines do not yaw efficiently into the wind due to draw backs of nacelle anemometry. The loss of power is estimated to be 1-3% in flat terrain and offshore
The main goal of the project was to develop, demonstrate and implement new tools, models and components in the design process for aeroelastic optimization of Mega-Watt wind turbines with the scope of
The project has used tools for process simulation to improve understanding of wind turbine blades. Based on the measurements, the project participants designed a new wing, followed by a demonstration
Meteorological mini-sensors placed on, for example, small model planes constitute a rapidly advancing area. The project will produce a clear picture of existing mini-sensors and the planes and examine
