A Study on the Effect of External Loading for the Composite Material Layup of a Large Wind Turbine Blade Based on a Pattern Search Algorithm

Energies
As the trend towards larger wind turbines continues, the increasing length of wind turbine blades imposes higher demands on their structural properties. Long flexible wind turbine blades at the hundred-meter scale now typically employ composite materials.

Comparing the economic feasibility of offshore floating wind and solar photovoltaic technologies in Central Mediterranean deep waters [PDF]

, 2015
Malta, being a very small and densely populated island in the central Mediterranean, has little space for large scale onshore wind turbine or photovoltaic projects. Maltese territorial waters are mostly too deep for conventional offshore wind farms

Accessing offshore wind turbines for maintenance : calculating access probabilities, expected delays and the associated costs using a probabilistic approach [PDF]

, 2012
There are ambitious plans in place for the expansion of offshore wind-power capacity in the EU and elsewhere. However, the cost of energy from offshore wind is much higher than that from land-based generation and anything between 15% and 30% of this cost
