MONITUR Reduction in Maintenance Costs of Wind Turbine Renewable Electricity Generation through Online Condition Monitoring
Coordinator: MIKROSAY YAZILIM VE ELEKTRONIK ENERJI SANAYI TICARET ANONIM SIRKETI (TR)
To achieve the EC binding targets of 20% electricity generation from renewables by 2020 will require between 600 and 833 TWh to be produced by wind power which will require between 119,000 to 165,000 new turbines. According to the European Wind Energy Technology Platform publication “O&M strategies are based on periodic inspection; fault statistics from existing stock is either unavailable or insufficient; maintenance needs to be minimised through preventative strategies and tools like conditional monitoring; performance of offshore farms is severely impacted by poor reliability leading to ma…
About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.
EU contribution: €1.1M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2013-01-01 to 2014-12-31.
