SYTIS featured in NACE magazine: Wind farm maintenance with infrared cameras

🚀 Bringing wind energy models up to speed 🌍💨 Wind power is booming – but many life cycle assessments still relied on outdated data. At LCM 2025 in #Palermo, Matthias Stucki presented new life cycle inventory models for on- and offshore wind energy. The results - developed together with Hanna K. and Alena Frehner - are clear: wind power remains one of the cleanest electricity sources, up to 20× less environmentally-intensive than grid mixes. The modelling was commissioned by the Federal Office for the Environment FOEN and the Swiss Federal Office of Energy SFOE.

20–30MW wind turbines are on the horizon. But what does that mean for transport and installation? At the #WindWeek2025 Offshore Foundations Focus Day, Jeroen Berkhout, Project Director at OFFSHORETRONIC, explores the coming shift: ▪️Foundation dimensions for next-gen WTGs ▪️Supply chain capacity for >3,500t monopiles ▪️Lessons from the last 10 years of T&I projects ▪️Opportunities for emerging markets A session that tackles the real implications of turbine scale-up. #WindWeek #OffshoreFoundations #30MW #DorintBremen #IQPCGermany #IQPC

Leading edge erosion is one of the biggest challenges in relation to maintenance within the wind industry. However, solutions such as Leading Edge Protection, when installed, can greatly improve the lifespan of a blade, which in turn increases the AEP (Annual Energy Production) of the turbine. Long-term performance starts with the right maintenance. Learn more about Leading Edge Protection and why it's so important for long-lasting blades: https://lnkd.in/ehVytvaH #GEVWindPower #RenewableEnergy #WindPower

Graham Hunter has recently been on-site in Scotland carrying out gearbox borescope inspections. These detailed internal inspections are crucial for detecting early signs of wear, damage, or misalignment before they develop into costly failures. By using advanced borescope technology, we can minimise downtime, extend turbine lifespan, and keep assets performing at peak efficiency. At AIS Wind Energy, we combine technical expertise with decades of experience to deliver safe, efficient, and reliable inspection services for wind farm operators across the UK.

Modular wind turbines, currently in pilot testing, with their scalable design offer a low-cost alternative to conventional wind farms, potentially delivering power at a fraction of the cost. This innovative approach could solve challenges related to transportation, installation and land use making wind energy more accessible and efficient. #RenewableEnergy #WindPower #CleanTech #Innovation

There’s a #WindOfInnovation blowing again! 🌬️ This month, we’re exploring a trend that’s quietly expanding the reach of wind power: harnessing low wind speeds. For years, large-scale wind energy has focused on high-wind regions. But thanks to smarter turbine design, taller towers, and advanced control systems, low-wind areas are becoming viable for wind generation, from the southeastern U.S. to inland Europe. With new technologies tailored for moderate conditions, the wind industry is unlocking territories once considered unprofitable—bringing clean energy closer to demand centers, and reducing the need for massive transmission investments. Could this be the key to democratize wind energy and accelerating global deployment? Let’s dig into it 👇 #WindOfInnovation #WindEnergy #LowWindSites
