The project has prepared the establishment of a partnership that can develop intelligent solutions into a potential growth area for national business and employment. The project has developed a
The project is based on a previously tested 1:40 model of a new type of wave energy converter, which has so far shown good properties. The objective of the project is to measure loads on the
The object is to provide input for the existing international standardisation efforts in flexible control of distributed power systems. This includes IEC 61850 and IEC 61970. The work must involve
The project aims at developing a meteorological software tool for large wind farm planning. The project is based on data from previous projects on large wind farm shadow effect. The existing tools
The project focuses on a theoretical and experimental study of floating platforms for wind turbines, wave power systems and the relationship between wind and wave power. The project basis is the
The first step is to combine a hydrodynamic model of the waves with a dynamic model for the mechanical and hydraulic PTO system to achieve an understanding of the principles behind optimising energy
Optimization of power production and reliability of the Wave Star prototype in Hanstholm. The funding is given as a temporary additional per production hour, and is activated by attainment of
The project will test the abilities of the wave wing as an energy absorber. The test will be performed in the wave tank at AAU following preparation of measuring setup, component list and plan for
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.
About 20-25% of the energy used in the EU is utilised for room heating. Even a few % improvement will represent a large quantity of energy saving and CO2 reduction. Thecalculation tool implemented on
The cooperation project is conducted with a PhD study as its central element and its research will be used directly in wind turbine and wnd farm development so as to prepare common guidelines under
By 2015, the city of Frederikshavn must consume 100% renewable energy. The goal is to test an integrated energy system in which electricity, heating and transportation interact intelligently without
The CanDan1.5 project is part of the Canadian/Danish CanDan collaboration and the purpose is to: - Analyze state-of-the-art and future prospects for hydrogen & fuel cell power balancing concepts &
Acoustic measurements will be performed at various degrees of wake using several measuring techniques. The results will be compared with aerodynamic measurements to enhance knowledge of wind turbine
In this project, by means of computer simulations, flow conditions of wing tips were investigated for a number of wing designs for wind turbines. Various numeric design methodologies were developed
For the first time ever, this project integrated three design areas in a simulation: electrical design and
optimisation of wind turbines (generator and gearbox), aerodynamic design (material and
This project developed methods and tools for modelling various ruptured wind turine blades and for analysing the residual strength of the blades if they crack. This provides a foundation for assessing
This project involved the first two phases in establishing a knowledge centre for wind turbine components. In the first phase, the knowledge centre was officially established, and it was decided that
