The levers of classical mechanical engineering and turbine construction are well-developed. The next wave of innovation in wind energy is powered by sensors and information. In 10 years, every new rotor blade will be equipped with several sensors that allow a direct measurement of the structural parameters.
The operation of wind turbines and parks can be significantly optimized with the help of moments, frequencies and forms resulting from these signals. So rotor blade sensing is the foundation of future digital business models.
Rotor blade sensing combines two strategically important topics of all wind turbine manufacturers: aerodynamics and turbine control. For this fos4X is a reliable partner.
