Meteorological sensors for wind turbine control

Higher, more robust, more reliable: Parallel to the growing requirements for wind turbines, the requirements for monitoring sensors grow as well. But how can wind sensor manufacturers fulfil these wishes? The ideal sensor has both a high degree of precision and a long, maintenance-free useful life under the most extreme of conditions. While mechanical anemometers were initially used in turbines, most producers around the world have since switched to ultrasonic anemometers without moving parts as part of their ...

Industrial gas detection solutions for wind turbines / power generation industry

DOD Technologies provides products in various applications that utilize, manufacture, or expel toxic, corrosive, and combustible gases. However, we also provide solutions outside of gas detection. Wind turbines utilize large blades propelled by the wind to generate renewable energy. One major challenge with wind is that it doesn’t come from the same direction every day. Therefore, wind turbines are fixed to rotating head that can optimize the collection of wind energy. This rotating head utilizes bearings to ...

Energy from waste wood

If waste wood is utilized, woody biomass can be a form of renewable energy that complements solar and wind. Furthermore, gasifying the wood to produce electricity is a lot cleaner than disposing via controlled burns, and has a lower carbon footprint than decomposition, since decomposition often produces methane, and reverts all of the carbon to carbon dioxide, whereas with gasification, a portion is sequestered as ...

Feed-in tariffs while avoiding low price periods

Biomass energy from gasification, when done responsibly with waste wood or suitable agricultural waste such as nut shells, is often eligible for feed-in tariffs. However, biomass gasification has the advantage of being on-demand, so you can feed renewable energy onto the grid at times when wind and solar are not abundant, enabling you to avoid times when prices are too low due to an excess of wind or solar power being fed to the ...

Hydrogen solutions for wind energy conversion sector

H-TEC SYSTEMS delivers its ME 100/350 PEM electrolyser for first customer practical application: The Citizen wind park Ellhöft (Bürgerwindpark Ellhöft) will use it to convert wind energy into green hydrogen and sell it to the transport sector. By drying the generated hydrogen, H-TEC makes it usable as a fuel according to ISO 14687. A new hydrogen refueling station west of Flensburg will sell it as fuel. It is planned to have the electrolyser installed and up and running by the spring of 2019. The ME ...

Wind Turbines for Transportation & Rail

Superwind is trusted and recommended equipment on many of the world’s railroads, airports, autobahns and port supply centers. As the world routes more people and cargo to destinations the utility grid cannot reach, superwind will help bridge the gap for sites with consistent wind by generating reliable electrical power. Our completely autonomous and very low maintenance wind turbines are a perfect fit for hard to reach places on busy highways or at distant rail crossings. With proper installation, a ...

Ammonit Wind Ressource Assessment Systems

Prior to setting up a wind farm, the local wind conditions have to be measured for site assessment. The construction of a profitable wind farm demand the most accurate and reliable wind measurement technology. The installed equipment has to perform as precisely as possible as the data quality is essential for designing a reliable and economical wind farm. A small discrepancy in the evaluation of wind speed data drastically multiplies the discrepancy of the calculated wind power. Wind resource assessment systems ...

Hydrogen solutions for power-to-gas sector

In 2012, GP JOULE developed the power gap filler system to compensate for load fluctuations in the grid resulting from variations in the supply of wind and solar energy. PEM electrolysers convert excess green energy into hydrogen, which can be stored and fed back into the grid as required via a biogas-fired block-type thermal power station. This makes it possible to optimally integrate renewable energies into the electrical grid and offset and compensate for a lack of energy on days when there is little wind or ...

Automatic fire detection and suppression solutions for wind turbine industry

Ensure your power generation equipment is protected from the dangers of flammable oils, hydraulic fluids, and short-circuits. Unlike buildings or industrial equipment, wind turbines can be very difficult to protect with traditional fire safety systems. Because wind turbines operate remotely, fires can go undetected. That means a fire extinguisher is not a viable option. Sprinkler systems don't make sense either, because they require a water source. Wind turbine fire suppression systems from Firetrace provide a ...
