Failures and Reliability in Hawts Operating in Mountainous Areas, Open Sea and in Harsch Climate Sites

Recently, offshore wind plants, as Horn’s Riv one, have reached a remarkable interest and development. In these sites, HAWT’s blades experiment corrosion, erosion and fouling and, at higher latitudes, icing conditions too, as in mountainous areas and in harsch climate sites. The operative conditions...
