ECN control system increases wind turbine yield
Petten, Netherlands
The construction of larger wind turbines can reduce the cost of wind energy and increase yields. However, the rotor blades of larger turbines are also subject to higher wind loads. Individual adjustment of the rotor blades can reduce this load, allowing lighter, cheaper wind turbines to be developed with a better financial return.
