The AUTOWINSPEC project develops an autonomous robotic system for inspecting wind turbine blades. By using advanced non-destructive testing techniques, it aims to assess blade conditions and lifespan while significantly reducing maintenance costs and downtime associated with manual inspections.
The wind turbine industry is one of the fastest growing markets.
Current turbines are huge with turbine rotor diameters of over 100m becoming standard. EU energy policy calls for 20% of the EU's 3040Th/y electricity demand to come from renewable sources by 2020, which constitutes a market of some 140€ billion and wind energy is the clear front runner.Presently in situ blade inspection is carried out every 3-6 month visually or with manual operatives involved in dangerous abseiling.
