In offshore wind farms blade damage caused by erosion is a frequent cause for blade failure and power loss. To offer a durable solution, Sirris has developed a methodology, based on the detection of ...
New developments in technology, materials and information can make the operation of future floating wind farms cheaper, which will also reduce electricity generation costs.
After a successful test series, Siemens Energy was able to demonstrate that a new step-up transformer for wind industry applications can also start in cold conditions, to improve the cold-start ...
Following two successful summits, Sirris is organising the Wind Energy Technology Summit for the third time. The aim of the masterclass and the seminars is to inform and inspire companies and ...
WindEurope, the largest event by and for the European wind industry, presented us with the latest trends and state of the art to be found in this booming sector. Sirris was a part of it, as a visitor ...
The PHairywinD project is a Belgian academic offshore wind network for young researchers, as a launchpad for academic excellence, industrial interaction and international outreach. This data exchange ...
There is a direct link between moisture and life-shortening technical failures n wind turbines, independent research by the German Fraunhofer Institute confirms.
Even before the recent energy crisis, the Belgian government had decided to shift up a gear in the production of renewable energy. Technological innovation will play a major role at the thematic event ...
A pilot project intends to test a floating wall of wind turbines off the Norwegian coast. The electricity which can be generated would satisfy the power consumption of some 80,000 households, while ...
Icing is a huge challenge for machines and other products in cold climates. Monitoring and testing the functionality and durability of parts is therefore essential to ensure product quality and safety ...
Even before the recent developments started to affect our energy supply, the Belgian government had decided to shift up a gear in the production of renewable energy. To this end, they are primarily ...
