EOLES
End Of Life wind Energy Strategies In Europe, much of the wind farm fleet is nearing the end of its useful life, with 57 GW reaching 20 years of operation in 2030. Spain, and especially Navarra (with ~1 GW affected), face the challenge of deciding between extending the life of wind turbines, repowering or decommissioning. […]
RETACO
DEVELOPMENT OF ADVANCED METHODOLOGIES FOR REDUCING THE SIZE OF WIND TURBINE COMPONENTS DURING DISMANTLING The Spanish wind power sector, with its ageing fleet, faces the challenge of dismantling and recycling wind turbines that have reached the end of their useful life. Although between 85% and 90% of the total weight of their materials (steel, copper, […]
Wind4Industry
Industrial Research for the Second Life of Wind Turbines An industrial research project funded by a Torres Quevedo grant, it focuses on the reuse of second-life wind turbines in industrial self-consumption installations. Through advanced technology, we optimise their integration, promoting circularity and reducing environmental impact.
R3Power
Circularity in the repowering of wind farms. R3POWER is a collaborative industrial research project whose main objective is to increase circularity in the repowering of wind farms, minimising waste and maximising the reuse of materials. This project is part of the Transmisiones 2024 programme, funded by the State Research Agency and CDTI.
RenerOil4Wind
Sustainable reconditioning of industrial oils from the wind power sector RENEOIL4WIND is a collaborative industrial research project funded by the Government of Navarre and and by the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER). Its objective is to develop innovative technologies for the reconditioning of industrial oils from wind turbines, optimising their reuse in the wind power […]
