System integration: large scale wind energy to meet a CO2-free energy system
The TNO-vision is to realise 60GW at the Dutch part of the North Sea. That is much more power than is currently used as electric power in the Dutch energy system. How do we make sure that this fits and works?
An important solution is sector coupling and conversion and storage options connected to an offshore energy infrastructure to transport the large amounts of electricity and gas to the users on shore. This webinar will address the vision of implementing large scale offshore wind power, the required innovations and developments to overcome barriers and further reduce cost of energy and address the TNO-innovations in sector coupling to develop a thriving offshore wind sector.
Reliable, affordable and sustainable energy system

Digitisation improves the design and maintenance of wind farms
For the design of wind turbines and the subsequent efficient operation of wind farms, TNO uses the latest digital technologies.
Wind measurements and validation techniques
Before a wind turbine is launched onto the market, it must be approved. TNO is one of the few bodies authorised to carry out these certification measurements.
Applying robotics increases safety and reduces maintenance costs
Maintenance of wind turbines without human intervention. TNO is developing and testing concepts to automate and digitise maintenance with robotics.
Huge worldwide potential for floating wind turbines
If the sea is very deep, floating wind turbines are a solution. TNO is researching the possibilities of floating wind turbines, anchored to the seabed, for deep sea locations.
New wind energy technology
Offshore wind energy will experience significant growth in the coming decades, both technologically and in the amount of capacity installed. TNO is working on new techniques and methods.
