Awardee:
GE Research
Start Date:
Q3, 2022
Technical Challenge Area:
O&M and Safety
Completion Date:
Q4, 2023
Synopsis:
This project aims to advance the remote inspection and monitoring technologies and strategies for exterior components of offshore wind turbines, with the end goal of reducing O&M costs for offshore wind.
Target Outcomes:
1
Create a conceptual design of a proof-of-concept (POC) multi-sensing system for use in conjunction with autonomous vessel-based inspection of offshore wind turbines, with the design specifically focusing on the strategies for data quality enhancement.
2
Prove this system could generate high quality images serving as a novel solution for offshore wind inspection.
