One of the key points in the pre-construction and financial closure phase in the wind industry is to outline the long-term production, where the annual production degradation factor becomes critical. There is a set of measures to mitigate this degradation that includes CMSs, the use of drones with advanced optics and thermography for the care of the rotor, as the use of advanced high-precision anemometry, which is the main topic to this article.

In celebration of the World Environmental Day and Global Wind Day taking place this month of June, from Nabla Wind Hub we wanted to explore and share five crucial principles we believe the wind industry must embrace to become responsible guardians of the environment.

As the world continues to shift towards renewable energy sources, wind farms have become a prominent feature in our landscapes. While wind energy offers numerous environmental benefits, it is essential to consider the impact of wind farms on biodiversity.

In recent years, wind energy has positioned itself as the leading source of clean and renewable energy in the world. These days, wind turbines have become synonym of sustainability and engine of carbon reduction. However, as the lifespan of these wind turbines comes to an end, a new environmental challenge emerge: how to recycle the wind turbines.

Nabla Wind Hub and SGS were pioneers in certifying the first 40-year wind farm in the world. It was a job that was done independently because there was not yet an IEC61400-28 standard that would bring the wind industry into agreement on how different levels of analysis for life extension were considered good.

Since last year, Nabla Wind Hub has been collaborating with the Japanese country through the Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute (FREA), and the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST),offering they know-how and expertise on the latest trends in O&M technology and wind farm life extension.
