Advanced remanufacturing technology could transform wind turbine repairs and cut sector’s carbon footprint

A research collaboration between Renewable Parts Limited (RPL), SSE Renewables, and the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS) has demonstrated the potential to remanufacture critical onshore wind turbine components to drastically cut waste, reduce carbon emissions and extend part life. Using advanced additive manufacturing, analysis and inspection techniques, the team successfully restored damaged pinion shafts from…
