Wind Energy: Essential Technologies for Test, Control, and Monitoring

Featured Video
 

The global adoption of wind energy as a reliable source for clean energy is rising. It has become more important for component manufacturers and turbine integrators to increase component production rate, improve system reliability, and overcome grid integration challenges to implement faster adoption of wind energy and ultimately global independence from oil- and coal-based energy sources. A shift toward improved technology for automated component testing, online condition monitoring, and grid integration control can help solve these challenges. Learn about these essential technologies for test, control, and monitoring and how National Instruments products are driving innovation in the wind energy industry.
