Customized blade upgrade solutions
Our solutions are developed to ensure that you don’t have to settle for less than maximum performance
Customized upgrade solutions for wind turbines
Our technologies allow us to offer clients full range, customized and data-driven upgrade solutions
that make it easy to optimize the aerodynamics of new and operating turbine blades.
AEP increase
Wind turbine blades are exposed to aerodynamic degradation throughout their operational lifetime. Leading-edge erosion, surface roughness and flow separation reduce aerodynamic efficiency, resulting in lower energy capture and measurable AEP losses. PowerCurve develops aerodynamic blade upgrade solutions designed to restore and enhance blade performance through targeted flow control and optimized airflow behavior.
Our solutions are engineered using CFD and BEM-based analysis, validated through field data and adapted to turbine-specific blade geometry, operating conditions and surface condition. Explore how DragonScale, vortex generators and Gurney flaps are used to improve aerodynamic efficiency, delay flow separation and increase annual energy production while maintaining load-neutral turbine operation.
Noise reduction
Aerodynamic noise is a growing challenge as turbine sizes increase and wind farms operate closer to residential areas. Noise-related restrictions often force turbines into low-noise operating modes, reducing power output and annual energy production. PowerCurve develops aerodynamic noise reduction solutions that address noise generation at the blade level, where it originates.
Using CFD-based aerodynamic and aeroacoustic analysis, our solutions are engineered to reduce trailing-edge noise while maintaining aerodynamic efficiency and turbine performance. Explore how SilentEdge helps operators comply with evolving noise regulations, reduce curtailment and protect AEP under real operating conditions.
Lightning protection
Lightning strikes are among the most critical causes of blade damage and unplanned turbine downtime. As turbines increase in size and are installed in high-exposure environments, the risk of structural blade damage, receptor failure and lightning-related repairs continues to grow. PowerCurve develops lightning protection solutions designed to improve strike interception and current transfer while protecting blade integrity under real operating conditions.
Our solutions are engineered for integration with existing blade structures and validated according to industry-relevant lightning protection requirements. Explore how optimized receptor design, aerodynamic integration and robust protection strategies help reduce lightning-related damage, improve turbine availability and support long-term operational reliability.
