Finished projects 2025

The project partners are developing and trying out a test facility for the frequency converters of multi-megawatt wind turbines with the aim of being able to validate and optimize the impact they have on grid stability. BMWE, 12/2019 - 06/2025

The project partners are analyzing and optimizing logistics concepts for the operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms on the basis of large quantities of data. BMWE, 07/2021 - 06/2025

The project partners are investigating the possible use of individual pitch control (IPC) in order to identify various optimization options for wind turbines. The goal is to reduce fatigue loads and sound emissions using IPC and, at the same time, have a positive impact on power generation and optimize the wind field in the wake of wind turbines. BMWE, 01/2020 - 06/2025

The aim of the project is to ensure that experimental testing of very long rotor blades remains economically viable for manufacturers. New testing procedures for the investigation of segments will offer a better understanding of critical areas and thus increase the informative value of the tests considerably. BMWE, state of Bremen (ERDF), BMFTR, 01/2019 - 06/2025

Fraunhofer IWES is currently developing a cost-effective monitoring method for the recording of time-varying subsoil parameters in the pile area of offshore wind turbines using ultrahigh-resolution 4D seismics. BMWE, 06/2021 - 05/2025

The project partners are working to derive new wind field models that will improve the design of large and high wind turbines and enable the revision of the current standard. BMWK, 02/2021 – 01/2025

The project partners are improving and validating calculation and simulation methods for the testing and design of rotor blades. BMWK, 05/2021 - 04/2025

The project partners are developing a method for elliptical biaxial testing of rotor blades corresponding to the requirements of a type certification. BMWE, 04/2022 - 03/2025
