Can integrated photonic sensing make wind farms more efficient? PhotonFirst says yes. Are Modvian's wood turbine towers really more eco-friendly than some existing manufacturing methods? Vestas and other investors think so. Rosemary and Allen discuss sustainable designs and new recycling technology. Rosemary wants more information on Vestas' announcement that its novel chemical process breaks epoxy back down into virgin materials, as well as some details on Norway's Wind Catching Systems. Vancover's Veer and Pattern Energy would probably agree that more data is always a good thing,as the companies are working together to optimize operational performance. Speaking of which... O&M is on our minds as we prep for Clean Power's Operations, Maintenance and Safety Conference in Orlando next month. Will you be there? Let us know! Our wind farm of the week is the Budweiser Wind Farm at Thunder Ranch in Oklahoma, where Enel Green Power helps Anheuser Busch produce its beverages more sustainably. Every week, Uptime reviews the industry's news, technology, and cool wind farms. Plus, a bonus episode on robots this week.

Email us! Uptime 152 Allen Hall: Rosemary, the big news here in America is that there was a balloon floating across the United States that we all watched slowly drift from one ocean to the other. Rosemary Barnes: I can't figure out what on earth that was, it was for, or what the cause was. And I, I agree. I would probably shoot it down too. You know, so, so that you're sure. But that's what I'm saying. Super, super weird, right? Allen Hall: Super weird. Yeah. It was a very strange week for that to happen. So next time there's a balloon, there's, hopefully they'll send it south. It's tough sending it to America. Cause it's freaking out America at the moment. And, and speaking of freaking out There's a lot happening in wind news this week. It, the every day is just a plethora of, of really cool stuff. This week we're gonna talk about integrated photonic sensing, basic fiber optic sensing in winter blades, and that's, Based on our article we saw in Power and Energy Solutions Magazine, and then we take a deep look at Vestas announcing a method to recycle the epoxy resin in existing wind turbine blades. So breaking down the epoxy into virgin components so we could reuse to make more wind turbine blades. Really cool Rosemary Barnes: technology. Yeah. And then we talk about another project that investors have invested in, the mod vn wooden wind turbine powers. And I talk a little bit about whether it's really more sustainable than steel will be in the future. And then onto wind catching that it's a new kind of offshore wind turbine with like a, a grid array of small wind turbines. And I try the questionable tactic of hoping that they will hire me to help them with their development by criticizing them a lot. So let's see, let's see how that goes for me. And then we've got the Wind Farm of this week is the Budweiser Wind Farm at Thunder Ranch in Oklahoma. Allen Hall: Also just to note, Weather Guard Lightning Tech is going to be at American Clean Power O&M in Orlando, Florida in the beginning of March. So if you're down in Orlando, stop and say hi.
