Technological solutions throughout the wind energy value chain for cost reduction, sustainability and energy security
The decarbonisation of the energy system, transport, building, industry and other sectors requires the mass integration of renewable energies. Wind power today covers 16% of Europe's electricity demand. The European Commission considers that half of the electricity in 2050 will be wind, with output going from the current 220 GW to 1,300 GW. That means a 25-fold increase in offshore wind energy in the EU.
In this webinar TECNALIA presents some of their technological solutions throughout the wind energy value chain for cost reduction, sustainability and energy security.
- Solutions for a floating wind development that covers all the steps for the technology development: concept definition, full coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic numerical modelling -floating structure, mooring system and dynamic cable-, structural design, scaled test validation and models calibration.
- Solutions for transforming the manufacturing processes in the wind energy sector by the use of CRANEBOT®system, a flexible robotic crane that improves the flexibility, quality and safety of operations, increases the productivity of companies and reduces their costs.
- Solutions for wind farms digitalization through an industrial AI approach. Digital twins technologies for wind farms will be presented including hybrid models applying the maintenance analytics concept by the means of virtualization i.e virtual commissioning of the assets through data fusion and integration from a systems perspective.
- Solutions for life extension and security improvement of offshore materials, components and equipment using HarshLab (harshlab.eu). HarshLab is the floating perfect offshore laboratory for performing anticorrosion, antifouling, ageing testing of materials and equipment in real offshore environment, being open to host also assays of sensors or any other device designed to operate in harsh offshore conditions.
