Now that more and more electricity is being generated from solar and wind energy, the demand for long-term storage of this energy is also growing. Batteries are a booming business and the technology is evolving rapidly to keep up with demand. One recent innovation is a flow battery based on hydrogen ...

Through OWI-Lab, Sirris has developed a methodology to assess the economic impact of innovations on offshore wind farms and expanded the models and the capability to include the green hydrogen generation. All results were presented on two European conferences for the wind industry.

New developments in technology, materials and information can make the operation of future floating wind farms cheaper, which will also reduce electricity generation costs.

You can approach sustainability by focusing on the physical aspect of durability or by focusing on the (ecological) systems and processes with the lowest possible environmental impact or even positive and regenerative impact. This article discusses what sustainability means for biocomposites, what ...

When setting up activities in the inner circles of the circular economy - remanufacturing, refurbishing, retrofitting, repair, parts harvesting, etc.- there is a need for cooperation between companies. In almost all cases, there are activities that cannot or will not be carried out by one single ...

By combining a light polymer with strong and rigid fibres, composites bring all these properties together in one material. Composites also offer other advantages, such as freedom of shape, corrosion and fatigue resistance. They are therefore widely applicable in industries such as aerospace ...

Measuring is knowing, but knowing alone does not appear to be enough: global circularity has been steadily declining, year after year, since 2019. Just as important as knowing measurement results is accepting that we need to make adjustments if we want to have an impact on those results. Some tips ...

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.

Following two successful summits, Sirris is organising the Wind Energy Technology Summit for the third time. The aim of the masterclass and the seminars is to inform and inspire companies and organisations about emerging technological developments in the (offshore) wind energy sector. This year, we ...
