What happens to turbine blades over time when icing is left unaddressed? Frequent ice buildup doesn’t just reduce energy production — it can lead to unnecessary wear and tear, mechanical strain, and costly repairs. From reduced aerodynamic performance to structural degradation, the long-term impact of icing is more serious than many operators realize. Want to learn more?

We all know that winter challenges can affect wind turbine performance, but innovative solutions make the difference. Our latest article from Daniela Roeper, P. Eng., discusses how internal blade heating systems are transforming cold climate wind energy production. Using the same principle as a car's windshield defroster, these systems work from within to combat ice buildup on turbine blades. The results? Up to 20% recovery of potential energy losses during winter months. Our article examines: -> Why blade design makes this approach effective -> Real-world implementation in harsh climates -> Economic and environmental benefits For wind farm operators facing winter challenges, internal heating technologies offer a proven solution to maintain consistent energy production year-round.

In Finland’s extreme winter conditions, ice buildup can halt turbine operations when energy demand is at its peak. Comprehensive ice protection could help a Finnish wind farm recover lost production and achieve a potential 91% ROI for the system within the first year. Learn how proactive ice mitigation could boost your wind farm’s winter performance and reduce safety risks from ice throw: https://lnkd.in/esudnjnB #windsider #icemitigation #windfarm #windturbine #turbineblade

❄️ When your turbines are at a standstill, energy losses add up fast. Just 1 day of ice-related downtime can cost a single turbine up to 50 MWh in lost energy. Multiply that by a full week—and you’re looking at 350 MWh or more per turbine. That’s a serious hit to your bottom line. Watch our latest video to see how winter downtime affects your revenue—and how you can recover more than 70% of those losses with comprehensive ice protection.

How can wind farms reduce icing losses while optimizing energy production? At Winterwind 2025 in Sweden, Daniela Roeper, P.Eng., Vice President of BorealisWind, presented on a critical question facing wind farm operators: How can weather forecasts be used to trigger ice protection systems more effectively? In collaboration with Dylan Baxter, the presentation explored how forecast-driven activation of ice protection systems can: ✅ Maximize production by reducing unnecessary system use ✅ Minimize energy consumption during non-icing periods ✅ Ensure safety and performance during severe icing events By leveraging environmental data and refining system triggers, operators can improve the efficiency of ice protection while maintaining reliable turbine performance.

What is the cost of doing nothing? Every winter, wind farms without ice protection lose days or even weeks of production due to ice buildup. But the true cost isn’t just downtime—it’s also: ⚠️ Increased wear & tear on turbine components ⚠️ Expensive emergency maintenance when ice damage occurs ⚠️ Safety hazards from ice throw ⚠️ Regulatory penalties for non-compliance in some regions How much could your wind farm recover with ice protection? The BorealisWind Ice Protection System helps wind farms prevent these losses for a flat annual fee with everything included.
