The leading edge of a wind turbine blade is one of the most punishing environments in renewable energy. At tip speeds routinely exceeding 80 to 100 metres per second, blades endure relentless impacts from raindrops and hailstones. This leading-edge erosion degrades the aerodynamic profile, increasin...

Much of the discussion around wind energy focuses on blades, nacelles and massive installation vessels. Yet, one of the most critical challenges of the energy transition lies far from the wind farm itself, in the fabrication halls where steel towers and offshore foundations are built. Here, kilometr...

The UK's industrial energy costs are among the highest globally, a stark reality impacting competitiveness, investment, and even national security. Businesses in Britain pay a significant premium – 46% higher than the IEA average and over four times more than in the US. While the UK has made strides...

Solar energy production faces a fundamental challenge: the sun doesn't shine continuously. While PV panels can generate power even in cloudy conditions, output varies throughout the day and across seasons, making it difficult for utilities to rely solely on solar. This intermittency has long been a ...

As solar farms scale to hundreds, even thousands, of megawatts, managing asset health becomes exponentially more complex. While drone thermography offers a powerful tool for inspection, simply collecting aerial data is no longer enough. The industry is drowning in vast "data lakes" – massive collect...
