Robowind, LLC has worked together with Professors Praveen Shankar and Mahdi Yoozbashizadeh from California State University, Long Beach to develop robots and robotic tools for wind turbine blade maintenance including installation of various wind turbine blade performance enhancements and improvements.

Key Points: 
  • Robowind, LLC has worked together with Professors Praveen Shankar and Mahdi Yoozbashizadeh from California State University, Long Beach to develop robots and robotic tools for wind turbine blade maintenance including installation of various wind turbine blade performance enhancements and improvements.
  • This is especially significant for offshore facilities where wind turbine blade maintenance and performance enhancement work is typically dangerous, expensive, and desperately needed.
  • As a result, completing maintenance or improvements on large wind farms can take several years before every turbine has been serviced.
  • The company has also concluded initial research on performance enhancing methodology and materials targeted for the wind turbine blade industry.
