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
The objective is to reach international consensus and establish guidelines on operation of wind farm flow models through a collaborative research work (IEA Task 31). Better understanding and
The Global Wind Atlas provides a new public-domain dataset of wind resources for the whole world, accounting for high resolution effects. Its specifications and accessibility through web tools will
The objective of the project is to demonstrate load reduction potential on tower and foundation of the PP-2B wind turbine concept designed to meet the needs of the existing and emerging offshore winid
This project addresses four specific aeroelastic design challenges of wind turbines through development, demonstration and implementation of new tools and models. The project is carried out in close
To ensure the reliability of large multi megawatt wind turbines, it is essential that the international standards that are used in its design are upgraded. With the objective of providing the right
The goal of the project is to further develop setup in order to erect a prototype tower with hub height of 140 m. This involves refining the design, development of moulds and erection equipment, and
The self-hoisting crane can greatly reduce the cost of service on wind turbines when major components such as gearbox, generator and rotor needs to be replaced. The self-hoisting crane can substitute
The aim of the project is to design highly efficient, low cost and low noise wind turbine blades, thereby making Danish wind turbine blades more competitive in the future wind energy market. The idea
The project involves development of a predictive structural health monitoring methodology and prototype for early detection and prediction of damages of wind turbine's critical structural elements as
The project concerns the development of a demonstration prototype of a component for the mounting of a wind turbine blade. The strength, a key feature of the component, is to be experimentally
