Berlin, 16.07.2012 – Vital for maintaining growth in the wind energy sector is tower design, foundation, steel structure, erection, tower maintenance and recycling. Learn at IQPC’s first International Conference Advances in Wind Turbine Towers from 28 - 30 August, 2012, in Bremen about the latest developments in standards and regulations, new simulation methods and design requirements.
Over the past 30 years, the wind energy turbine tower has grown from 40 meters to over 100+ meters with turbine sizes reaching 6 and more MW. Wind energy capacity curves improve with height because the wind profile is stronger.
Reaching better wind conditions leads to higher average power and full load hours, and consequently also to a higher return on the investment combined with the lowest life cycle costs.
The conference will deal with new concepts on steel tubular towers, lattice towers, pre-stressed concrete and hybrid towers.
• Discover dynamic load calculations to avoid tower fatigue
• Gain a profound insight into key parameters for wind turbine towers’ cost optimisation
• Explore how to reduce your cost of energy with hybrid towers
• Learn about material aspects of wind turbine towers to reduce material and weight
• Hear about bolted steel shell towers, an innovative solution for high hub heights
Leading experts from companies and institutions like Siemens AG, GE Wind Energy, Ruukki Wind Towers, AdvancedTower Systems BV, RWTH Aachen and Lulea University of Technology will be onsite and available for discussion.
