Across the world, there is near-unanimous agreement that action needs to be taken to halt climate change. Rarely do issues achieve such a strong consensus, with the scientific community, global governments, businesses and consumers all broadly agreeing that more needs…
The importance of fire suppression in wind turbines
Wind power is an exciting emerging sector that needs those of us involved in fire safety to get on board. As electricity generation becomes more reliant on renewable energy, wind power is becoming increasingly important in the energy mix. As our reliance on wind turbines grows, keeping them fully operational and at reduced levels of risk is becoming more important, and as a result, so is safety management. There are over 340,000 wind turbines around the world; yet the vast majority of turbines have no fire suppression system installed.
Fire safety in wind turbines – there is more to know
Wind power is an important and growing source of renewable energy in Europe. Due to the wind conditions, offshore wind power is a promising option. Hence, optimization and reducing disruption to production of any kind is of interest. One cause…
