OptiWind to Hold Project Meeting

Operations & Maintenance

Consortium partners of OptiWind and their event partners OWI-Lab and Gen4Wave are organizing an open project meeting on December 17.

Three speakers will present their real life experiences with Operations & Maintenance of offshore renewable energy assets. O&M is also the leitmotiv within Optiwind.

OptiWind is an IWT SBO project. SBO projects are research projects of high scientific value but with industrial opportunities in the near future (5 to 10 years). Industry representatives (e.g. Belwind, CG, Nexans, DEME, …) are involved through an Industrial Advisory Board. OptiWind is looking at large offshore wind turbines (i.e. towards 20MW) together with the OWI-Lab partners.

Within OptiWind SET is responsible for two work packages: one on blades and one on grid connections.
