This article sheds light on the importance of blade inspection on the Vestas V112 wind turbine and shows how the use of drone technology is a safe, efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional inspection methods. Operators will learn how drone inspections can detect potential damage at an early stage, optimize maintenance processes, and increase the long-term profitability of the facility.

The safe operation of wind turbines requires regular inspections in accordance with DGUV Regulation 3 to ensure the functionality and safety of the electrical systems. This guide provides operators with comprehensive guidance on the testing requirements, explains the testing process, and addresses specific challenges during implementation. This allows operators to minimise legal risks and maximise the efficiency of their wind farms.

The switch to LED lighting systems in wind turbines is an essential measure to ensure safety and sustainability. This article introduces the Towerstrip+ system from Switch GmbH, an efficient and legally compliant lighting solution specifically designed for use in wind turbines.

Dedicated drones are revolutionising wind turbine inspection. This article describes the problems and provides specific recommendations for solutions and actions.

Analyses by BloombergNEF (BNEF) and the RE-Source platform document enormous growth in 2023, especially for the European market for Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). RE-Source reports a 40 percent increase in European PPA volume compared to 2022, while BNEF even reports a 74 percent increase in corporate PPA deals – measured by contracted performance.

In the world of renewable energy, wind turbines play a crucial role in providing clean energy. However, their efficiency and productivity are inextricably linked to the challenges of safety technology. From obstacle lighting to warn aviation, to cybersecurity measures to protect against digital threats, to effective rescue concepts for emergencies at lofty heights – the safety of wind turbines is a multifaceted field. In this guide, we highlight all relevant safety aspects that operators, technicians and rescue workers should be aware of. We dive into the world of demand-driven night marking, discuss the importance of regular expert examinations, present techniques of height rescue, discuss corrosion protection measures and much more. The aim is to create a comprehensive understanding of the safety requirements and solutions in the wind industry without relying on the recommendations of specific service providers.

Wind energy has become increasingly important in recent years. The expansion of wind energy capacities increased rapidly, and costs fell at a similar rate. The developments of recent months have made it even more urgent to rethink energy production. Is an investment or participation in wind farms or wind turbines a safe investment?

The question of who actually owns these winch power plants can be complex. In this article, you will learn how to find information about the ownership of wind turbines and wind farms in Germany and what challenges market players in the wind industry have to overcome in doing so.

The wind energy industry has become one of the key industries for renewable energy in recent decades. But as wind turbines become taller, more efficient and more powerful, companies in the industry are facing new challenges. In a time of digital transformation and the growing importance of platforms, it is imperative to find innovative ways to secure competitive advantage and lead the industry into the future. This is exactly where the Windenergie.Macher HUB initiative comes in.

Demand-driven night marking (BNK) for wind turbines is a crucial tool for increasing the acceptance of wind energy. By 1 January 2024, all wind turbines in Germany must be equipped with a BNK system. This obligation raises many questions in practice, and the conversion time for operators is short. Here is a brief summary of key points, challenges and recommendations for action for wind farm operators.

Charging electric cars at wind and solar farms - a method that increases efficiency, reduces costs and actively contributes to environmental protection.

After about two decades of use, used wind turbines, mainly from Germany, are sold to countries in Eastern Europe, including Moldova. This article takes an in-depth look at the many challenges, risks and opportunities associated with the heavy transport of used wind turbines to Moldova.

Gutachten – damit assoziieren wir in der Regel bloß Bürokratie und trockene Dokumente voller Daten und Fakten. Zugleich sind sie aber auch unverzichtbar für den Fortschritt, den wir anstreben, wenn es um den Ausbau der Windenergie in Deutschland geht. So nüchtern die Gutachten-Thematik auch erscheinen mag, ist sie eines der Bindeglieder zwischen den erneuerbaren Energien und der Verträglichkeit mit Mensch und Umwelt. 

Schon jetzt sind erneuerbare Energien ein wichtiger Teil unserer Energieversorgung, doch das Ziel für die Zukunft ist die Klimaneutralität und Vollversorgung durch Windenergie, Photovoltaik, Wasserkraft & Co. Eine gewaltige Aufgabe, die trotz erheblicher Fortschritte in den letzten Jahren immer noch ein hohes Maß an politischem Willen, gesellschaftlichem Engagement, technologischer Innovation und sozialen Veränderungen auf globaler Ebene verlangt.

Wer die Daten hat, hat Antworten. Wer sie nutzt, erlangt Vorteile. Erst wenn wir in der Lage sind, den Wert einer Sache präzise zu beziffern, treffen wir fundierte und kluge Entscheidungen. In unserer datengetriebenen Welt wäre alles andere auch fahrlässig – schließlich will niemand sich oder etwas unter Wert verkaufen. Denken wir zurück an die Anfangsjahre der eBay-Auktionen, so haben wir uns alle sicherlich schon einmal gewundert, welchen Erlös ein scheinbar unscheinbares Verkaufsobjekt erzielen konnte. Viele Jahre später sind wir dank zahlreicher, vergleichbarer und transparenter Informationen deutlich schlauer, was den Wert verschiedenster Dinge betrifft – seien es Autos, technische Geräte, Luxusartikel oder Immobilien. Das verringert zugegebenermaßen die Chance auf außergewöhnliche Schnäppchen, was so manch zwielichtigem Marktteilnehmer sicher gegen den Strich geht. Andererseits sorgt jene Datenfülle für mehr Transparenz und Fairness bei den Verkaufspreisen. Doch wie gestaltet sich die Datenlage auf dem Markt für gebrauchte Windenergieanlagen?

Es zieht ein Sturm auf im Herzen Europas, und er bringt eine unbequeme Debatte um die deutsche Windenergie mit sich. Genauer gesagt geht es um den Wind, den Windenergieanlagen in Deutschland in Strom umwandeln. In windstarken wie ertragreichen Zeiten lautet die Frage plötzlich: Wem gehört eigentlich der Wind in Europa? Wer sollte das Recht dazu haben, von ihm zu profitieren? Und: Müssen wir demnächst sogar für Wind „bezahlen“? Ein Rückblick auf die Narrative und die Ereignisse, die inzwischen in einen bizarren Streit ausgeartet sind.

Wie künftig umgehen mit tausenden ausgedienten Windkraftanlagen?

Welche Technologien gibt es, die man effizient als Cloud für erneuerbare Energien nutzen könnte?
