About the project
In the project, 30 first-of-a-kind robotic systems for wind turbine generator rotor blades repair are manufactured and developed by Aerones. This will enable faster leading-edge repair tasks and in similar or better quality than human personnel. The robotic rotor blade leading edge repair services will make production of wind energy more efficient, affordable and sustainable, while also considerably reducing the risks associated with human personnel working at heights.
Impact of the project:
Faster turbine repairs within 18 hours lead to reduction of 67% in repair downtime, avoiding 161,349 tons of CO2 emissions over a decade and enabling the production of additional 918,320 MWh in renewable energy.
