Testing with piles in water and sand to understand the soil around monopiles. It sounds like a beautiful beach day: playing around with water and sand in an environment that…
Improving wind measurements to optimise power performance. To gain the most power from the installed wind turbines offshore and onshore, they must operate at their absolute best. That’s why the Sensor Assisted Wind farm Optimisation (SAWOP) project was initiated. Koen Hermans (TNO) and Jan Coelingh (Vattenfall) explain how SAWOP will help prove that nacelle LiDAR and spinner sensor technologies can optimise the power performance of wind turbines.
