Wind energy technology continues to evolve at pace, with innovation driving improvements throughout wind farm design, construction and operations. This session brings together engineers and technical specialists to examine where meaningful gains can be found in turbine design, construction efficiency, grid integration and operational monitoring focusing on improvements being made and what the future could hold.

Presentations will assess the remaining optimisation potential in megawatt-scale wind turbine components, explore the structural and construction efficiencies offered by precast wind turbine footing systems, examine techno-commercial solutions for grid integration challenges in modern wind farms, and how Structural Health Monitoring can improve economics and environmental performance.
