TIADE project to test new research on blade tip improvements

Wind Industry Profile of

Project TIADE (Turbine Improvements for Additional Energy) to develop and validate innovative wind turbine blade improvements, blade add-ons to boost the performance of offshore wind turbines / Innovations developed in the project will be tested on a full-scale research wind turbine using inventive field measurement techniques / Prototype turbine operational, measurements to begin soon

A consortium of GE Renewable Energy, LM Wind Power and TNO, are collaborating on the TIADE project to develop technologies and design methods for more efficient operation of next-generation wind turbine rotors, wind farms with large rotor wakes, and demonstrate them in the field. The TIADE project touched a new milestone with the research wind turbine becoming fully operational. The... ... More: Official Press Release GE Renewable Energy
