Quali Drone Performs Contact-Free Turbine Blade Inspection
|
9.1
Quali Drone, together with RWE, Statkraft, TotalEnergies, DTU and Energy Cluster Denmark, completed the first autonomous contact-free inspection of an operational offshore wind turbine blade under the AQUADA-GO project at Rødsand 2. The drone used visual cameras, thermography and AI-based deep learning to detect surface and subsurface defects in real time. The approach aims to avoid turbine shutdowns, reducing downtime, costs and CO2 emissions while improving safety.
