Larger, Lighter and Longer-Lasting Rotor Blades

Covestro’s polyurethane solutions offer important cost savings for wind energy, as demonstrated by simulations carried out by Bewind based upon 12MW offshore wind turbines with 100-metre-long rotor blades. Covestro, a global polymer company, has applied its industrial expertise in high-tech polymer materials to develop polyurethane solutions for wind turbine applications which offer performance benefits and lower blade costs.
