Probabilistic methods for wind turbine blades

The European Energy Research Alliance (EERA) has as a key purpose to elevate cooperation between national research institutes to a new level, from ad-hoc participation in joint projects to collectively planning and implementing joint strategic research programmes. The RES directive and the SET Plan enforce a high rate of deployment of wind energy, on- and offshore for the European Union’s member states leading to a high challenge for research in the two priority areas: Integration and Offshore. Wind energy was therefore at an early stage identified as an area for a joint research programme where the key players are the national wind energy research institutes but open to and encouraging universities to participate in the activities
