Offshore wind energy

EERA DeepWind’2017 Conference the 18 – 20 January 2017

EERA DeepWind’2017 was the 14th Deep Sea Offshore Wind R&D Conference held in Trondheim, Norway.

The conference was organized by the research parties in NOWITECH in cooperation with the European Energy Research Alliance (EERA) joint programme on wind energy and NORCOWE. The event aimed at presenting the best on-going R&D on deep sea offshore wind farms, both bottom fixed and floating.

Below follows some photos from the conference opening, poster session and closing. In between the opening on Wednesday and the closing session on Friday there was parallel sessions covering:

  • New turbine and generator technology
  • Met-ocean conditions
  • Operations & maintenance
  • Installation and sub-structures
  • Experimental Testing and Validation
  • Grid connection and power system integration
  • Floating wind turbines
  • Wind farm optimization
