AMI | Wind Turbine Blades

Today, wind turbine blade production is facing some key challenges; rising cost of materials and a downward pressure on turbine prices are making manufacturing high quality blades profitably extremely challenging, while the demand is growing fast.

Developing cost-effective inspection and maintenance technologies for blades is another critical factor for minimising the LCoE. Our market insights and events can help you understand and overcome these challenges.

Wind Turbine Blades North America | 2-3 October 2024 | Boston, MA, USA
Wind turbine blade demand in the USA is expected to grow significantly in the next few years, as the industry is expanding the offshore installed capacity from 42MW to 30GW by 2030. In the meantime, IRA and generous government incentives are supporting the development of a local, secure, and sustainable supply chain.

Building on the success of our well-established international event in Europe and a successful launch event last year, the Wind Turbine Blades North America conference is returning to Boston this October. The event provides a focused platform for all players in the fast-growing industry to discuss market opportunities and challenges including blade reliability, manufacturing defects and their implication for operators, automation in manufacturing and inspection/service, and blade sustainability.
