Wind infrastructure composites: Recycling may be in the air
Of all the many infrastructure sectors, power generation has seen one of the largest trends in composite materials usage for many of its applications. For instance, composites are now being used in buried and above-ground conduit, wind power and water-based power generation systems. Wind power infrastructure in particular has benefited from composites, and it may Read More…
Using composites in wind turbines in Canada
Energy industries have been using composites in energy-producing equipment for years. With the growing push for greener energy sources, wind turbines are no exception. Nearly 300 wind farms operate across Canada to produce thousands of megawatts of energy. This energy provides Canadian residents with power with less reliance on nonrenewable resources. Since the benefits of Read More…
How Closed Mold Process Composites Benefit Wind Turbines
Closed mold processes produces a growing number of composite products for sectors of the U. S. economy such as the automotive industry and the energy production industry to name a few. However, one of the biggest beneficiaries of components produced by this process has been the industrial wind turbine and its blades. The Benefits of Read More…
