Finished projects 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 developing a scientific-technological platform for the preparation of the market penetration of Flettner rotors on different types of vessels and, in doing so, are contributing to lower-emission shipping. BMWE, 01/2023 - 12/2025

The project partners are identifying the technical requirements on roller bearings for use as rotor blade bearings in multi-megawatt wind turbines. BMWE, 07/2021 - 12/2025

Cost-efficient huge capacities electrolyzers are required to satisfy Germany’s green hydrogen demand. Although there are already high-performance electrolyzers available on the market today, they are still largely built by hand. The H2Giga flagship project will therefore support the serial production of electrolyzers. BMFTR, 04/2021 - 12/2025

The project partners are developing an innovative electrolysis system with storage technology which is optimally adapted to the offshore environment for deployment at sea. BMFTR, 04/2021 - 12/2025

The best conditions for generating renewable wind energy can be found at sea. The direct production of green hydrogen from wind energy in offshore turbines without a grid connection can lower the costs considerably compared with onshore generation. The H2Mare flagship project will thus investigate the offshore generation of green hydrogen and other power-to-X products. BMFTR, 04/2021-12/2025

The project partners are investigating the potential of fiber-reinforced foams as an alternative to the use of balsa wood in rotor blades. BMWE, 01/2023 - 12/2025

Fraunhofer IWES is developing novel material models for rotor blades that, with optimized blade mass, ensure reliable operation even under extreme temperature conditions. BMWE, 04/2020 - 12/2025

The project partners are developing a probabilistic, integrated subsoil model for subsoil investigation and assessment which will allow improved design of offshore wind turbines. BMWE, 01/2023 - 12/2025

The project partners are developing a new measurement method to localize and determine the depth of burial of power cables in the sea floor. BMWE, 11/2020 - 12/2025
