To estimate the behaviour and performance of UAVs in all types of situations, reliable standard test measures are necessary. Several partners, including Sirris, started working together to develop a test method for the performance of UAVs when exposed to wind and ice.

Newly developed electrolytic materials for lithium-ion batteries could significantly improve the charging efficiency of the batteries in (extremely) cold weather.

RESA wanted to improve the quality of welded plastic gas-distribution pipelines. A series of thorough tests meant the organisation was able to achieve the desired improvements.

After a successful test series, Siemens Energy was able to demonstrate that a new step-up transformer for wind industry applications can also start in cold conditions, to improve the cold-start procedure and to reduce waiting times after a cold period.

On 17 May 2023, Sirris, KBVE, Agoria Energy Technology Club and OWI-Lab are organising a technical seminar, featuring the Princess Elisabeth Island as a world-class example of a reliable AC/DC infrastructure in a harsh offshore environment. The seminar will cover the challenges and best practices ...

Steel is a circular material because it is 100 per cent recyclable. In addition, it is collected, sorted and recycled on a large scale, and there is a market demand for these recyclates. Despite these fantastic references, there still seems to be a sustainability issue about steel. We’ll explain how ...

Fairwind, a Belgian company that designs and manufactures vertical axis wind turbines, has in its offering the 50 kW-Polar-Version-Wind Turbine, which is entirely in line with the Paris Agreement objective to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels taking place in Antarctica. To verify the proper ...

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) is used to determine the mechanical properties of viscoelastic materials by subjecting them to cyclic loading as a function of temperature, time and frequency.
