Quieter wind turbines and the optimisation of rotor blades

Quieter wind turbines and the optimisation of rotor blades
The Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture is promoting the development of a research wind farm in Lower Saxony at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) with 10 million euros. DLR scientists want to develop quieter wind turbines and optimise rotor blade designs. In addition, precise wind forecasts using satellite data and lidar measurements will allow better system control.
