Improved reliability and optimised operations and maintenance for wind energy systems
Funds research that improves the reliability and cuts the maintenance cost of wind turbines and their components.
This Research and Innovation Action from the European Commission funds research that improves the reliability and cuts the maintenance cost of wind turbines and their components, with particular interest in parts critical to floating offshore wind such as dynamic cables and moorings. Activities may start at any Technology Readiness Level and are expected to reach TRL 4-5 by the end of the project.…
The Commission wants research into wind-energy system reliability and maintenance — covering failure prediction, condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, and safer on-site repair methods — with particular interest in components critical to floating offshore wind, such as dynamic cables and moorings.
