Dual mission – Wind farms supporting sea life
RWE is making a splash with an exciting project that combines wind power generation and marine life conservation. Could this innovative approach redefine sustainable energy and revitalize our seas and oceans?
Into the silence – Balancing wind energy and marine health
A new collaborative marine research project is underway, set to discover innovative designs and best practices for monitoring and reducing underwater noise from floating offshore wind farms. It aims to ensure that our push for renewable energy doesn’t come at the expense of marine life.
Transitioning from dependency to renewable resilience – The Moroccan model
Once heavily reliant on energy imports, Morocco is now shifting to renewable energy, particularly wind, driven by robust national policies. This transition positions Morocco as a renewable leader in the Arab region, providing a replicable model for other nations. What can they learn from Morocco’s model?
EU electricity market reform – Another push towards renewable energy
Earlier this year, the European Commission introduced legislative initiatives aimed at improving European electricity market design and enhancing protection against market manipulation in the wholesale energy market, accelerating the transition to renewable energy sources. The reforms are particularly important for the wind industry since they create a more favorable and supportive environment for the growth and integration of wind power.
Power to liquid – Fueling up with renewable energy
What exactly are e-fuels? What role will they play in the greening of the economy? In this article, we’ll get a glimpse of how and where e-fuels are produced, wind farming’s role in their production, and how they can be deployed to make Europe — and the world — more sustainable.
Low carbon through recycled steel – How to achieve zero carbon emissions along the entire supply chain
Wind turbines consist of many materials including steel. The steel industry is one of the sectors that emit the most CO2 and is anything but environmentally friendly. The time has come to change that.
Decarbonized operations – SKF’s sustainability goals and measures
Reducing carbon emissions to limit global warming is the responsibility and duty of every organization and enterprise on this planet. SKF has been stepping up to the plate since the 80s and recently published an updated report portraying its sustainability progress.
South American pioneers – How Uruguay managed to become a champion in wind energy
A small country in Latin America has become a role model for the entire continent: Uruguay covers 94 percent of its energy needs from renewable sources. How did the country manage to do so? And what can other countries learn from Uruguay’s energy strategy?
Lubrication at new heights – Lubrication Part 2 – How wind turbines run like clockwork – around the clock
In mechanical systems, the perpetual friction of moving components is an acute problem. The only way to minimize the likelihood of major damage is with regular lubrication – a tough task when it comes to wind turbines.
