Make Your Wind Park a Cash Cow: Applying Aerospace Technology to Maximize Wind Energy Output
Yaw misalignment is a common but costly issue in wind energy. This talk explores how aerodynamic principles and sensing technologies from aerospace can improve turbine alignment and unlock up to 10 % more energy output.
Precise aerodynamics is mission-critical in aerospace—yet in wind energy, yaw misalignment remains a widespread and costly issue.
What if we transferred aerospace-grade sensing to wind turbines?
In this talk, we explore how aerodynamic principles and sensor technologies from aviation can optimize yaw alignment and unlock up to 10 % more energy output.
We’ll also introduce Vectoflow Windflower, a forward-mounted wind measurement system, and present real-world results from a long-term field campaign.
