How to ensure safety during icing conditions
Ice accumulation on wind turbine rotor blades has a crucial impact on operation and maintenance. Lower return due to aerodynamic imbalances as well as safety of the power plant and its surroundings are of central importance. Regardless of whether a wind turbine is located next to a highway or in the mountains where skiers and…
France: Updated safety regulations for wind farm operations
Modified safety regulations of wind farm operations in France (in force since January 1, 2021) Click here to the French version of this article On June 22, 2020 a new decree was published by the French Government, to bring some modifications in the safety regulations of wind farm operations (ICPE regulation). Before the modifications…
Dangers and risks due to ice accumulation on wind turbines
Minimise risks such as ice throw and increase yield with ice detection and temperature measurement directly on the rotor blade surface The risk factor: icing A wind turbine is designed to be used for at least 20 years, sometimes even up to 30 years. During its lifetime, it should reliably deliver maximum energy yield with…
What changes with our new DNV GL certificate?
New DNV GL certificate for eologix ice detection systems: Reduction of the number of sensors per wind turbine while increasing the redundancy of the entire system Every two years, all ice detection systems approved by DNV GL are subject to recurring certification. In September 2020 we have completed the re-certification of our ice detection systems,…
