Engineered textile blade with actively controlled surface/profile

该项目探索了通过主动控制、覆盖纺织品的叶片来降低成本和提高风力发电效率的潜力。这些叶片有可能突破当前技术的界限，改善叶片的设计、制造、组装和维护。具有负载主动控制的工程纺织叶片可以为解决英国的能源三难困境做出重大贡献。通过降低叶片的生产、运输和安装成本，并提高叶片效率，它将有助于推动陆上和海上风力涡轮机的进一步部署。项目团队由SMAR Azure Ltd， DNV-GL和ORE Catapult组成，拥有所需的技术技能和工程工具，商业专业知识和管理经验，以确保项目成功交付。

The project explores the potential to lower the cost and improve the efficiency of wind power generation through actively controlled, textile-covered blades. These blades have the potential to push the boundaries of current technology, improving the design, manufacture, assembly and maintenance of the blades. Enginered Textile blades with load active control can make a major contribution to solving the UK's energy trilemma. By reducing the cost of production, transportation and installation of the blades, and increasing the blade efficiency it will help to drive the further deployment of on- and offshore wind turbines.The project team - consisting of SMAR Azure Ltd, DNV-GL and ORE Catapult - has the required technical skills and engineering tools, commercial expertise and management experience to ensure that the project is delivered successfully.
