We're continuing to explore #lifecycleoptimisation at #WindTech24. Eric Tromeur looked at the feasibility of using SCADA data and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models to predict harmful status codes in wind turbines, thereby offering potential for predictive maintenance and reducing costs, with future work aiming to increase the number of predictable status codes and extend the prediction horizon. Michael Stamm gave a lively presentation of an innovative, #AI-based inspection and #blade damage assessment methodology for wind turbines using #thermographic and visual images to detect and localize blade damages, promising less inspection time, less turbine downtime, while providing analytical insights to increase turbine efficiency and renewable energy production. Tomasz Sieradzan reported on a study on how to manage the risk of crack formation and propagation on wind turbine blades, particularly on larger models, finding that adjusting #inspection schedules and planning for relative risk levels across operational timeframes can significantly reduce damage and increase turbine efficiency. And Clément Jacquet presented the development of new methods for optimizing #operationsandmaintenance (O&M), reducing costs, and improving the annual energy production (#AEP) of wind turbines, with a focus on integrating capital and operational expenses, wind farm characteristics, turbine models, and financial models for onshore and offshore applications, and using #reliabilityforecasting and #healthmonitoring models for resource planning and decision-making.

🎉 𝐖𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄! Our Annual Conference 2024 has officially kicked off, and we are already diving deep into the intersection of policy and innovation to shape Europe’s clean energy future! 🚀⚡️! 🔗 𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐮𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐰 - remember to first login to your profile and click 'attend' if you haven't registered: https://lnkd.in/d_wXsPix 🌍 Focus: The 𝐄𝐔’𝐬 𝐍𝐞𝐭-𝐙𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐭 and its impact on Europe’s clean energy tech sector. With key contributions from experts, this session will unpack how the Net-Zero Industry Act is shaping the regulatory and operational framework for clean energy technologies as the EU races toward its net-zero emissions targets. This is a 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭-𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 for anyone passionate about policy, innovation, and the future of clean energy in Europe! Let’s pave the way for a collaborative and cohesive clean energy future! 🌱 #CETPartnership #LiveNow #CleanEnergy #NetZero #Sustainability #Innovation #EnergyTransition #Networking

Today at Dunston Hall near Norwich, there is an event hosted by EEEGR (East of England Energy Group) in partnership with the North Sea Transition Authority - their ‘Energy Transition Hackathon’, focusing on decarbonising offshore hydrocarbon production. This event is tackling key challenges like offshore electrification, CCUS, and incremental emissions reduction, with the aim of accelerating the North Sea basin’s journey to net zero. The event is a unique opportunity for operators and specialist supply chain technology experts to connect, collaborate, and develop innovative solutions. #EnergyTransition #Decarbonisation #Innovation #NetZero #Collaboration

The #SETPlan conference 2024 is ongoing in Budapest! The Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan) facilitates cooperation in European research and innovation and the development of clean energy solutions to accelerate the energy transition. Each year, during the conference our scientists present a report on the progress of this initiative and the status of clean investments in Europe. This year, we highlight the importance of linking the SET Plan with the Net Zero Industry Act – the EU regulation that aims at boosting the production of clean energy technologies in Europe. This legal linkage will help strengthen connections between European research, innovation and manufacturing of innovative solutions and the coordination of common policies.  #SETPlan2024

Jake Badger and Wiebke Langreder led us through another session on #blockage and #wakes at WindEurope's #WindTech24 We heard from Joseph Anthony Vitulli, M.Sc who conducted a comparative analysis of industry-accepted engineering wake models and weather-based simulations for offshore wind farms, revealing larger deviations in internal wake impacts under tight spacing restrictions and emphasizing the need for improved understanding of wake effects, particularly for high-density developments and large turbines. Christopher Rodaway gave an update on the #GloBE project and presented the full and final processed measured wind/SCADA dataset. The presentation included model comparisons, and highlighted areas of consensus vs areas where uncertainty and disagreement remain, flagging the areas for further research. Oscar Manuel Garcia Santiago explained how to improve the modeling of wind farm wakes using new parameters in the WRF mesoscale model in handling Turbulence Kinetic Energy (TKE), thereby enhancing the assessment of intra-farm and inter-farm wake losses and aiding international coordination in offshore resource use. And Tom Levick demonstrated that the upgraded “multi-stability CFD.ML” model, which considers atmospheric boundary inputs, can effectively predict wake and blockage loss factors for large wind farms, thereby providing more accurate estimates and reducing uncertainties in financial costs and business cases for specific projects. https://lnkd.in/e-bAAnzR EMD International A/S Ramboll RWE DTU - Technical University of Denmark DNV

⭐️QUOTE OF THE WEEK⭐️ 🇪🇺The European Commission has published the first projects that were awarded a Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (STEP) Seal, a quality label which gives more visibility to promising projects in clean and resource-efficient tech, and deep and digital tech. This label will help attract additional EU public and private funding and support services. 🌿Commissioner for Budget, Anti-Fraud and Public Administration, Piotr Serafin, spoke on the criteria for awarding projects. #cleanenergy #windenergy #energy ➡️More here: https://lnkd.in/di78JYyc
