Work Package 4 - Preparation of recommended practice and connection to IEC

The objective of WP4, jointly led by DTU and DNV is to formulate a new recommended practice dedicated to the recycling of wind turbine blades (Subtask WP4.1). This recommended practice should support the formulation of a future DNV and IEC standard on the same topic. The objective is not to have several diverging standards, therefore the participants in WP4 will coordinate with DNV and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to ensure that the recommended practice is the most relevant possible to the industry and for a future DNV and IEC standard (Subtask WP4.2).

Subtask 4.1 – Wind turbine blade recycling recommended practice

Subtask lead: DNV

Scope: The goal of this subtask, led by DNV, is to formulate a new recommended practice dedicated to the recycling of wind turbine blades. This subtask will start in the beginning of the IEA Wind Task 45 – Phase II, from Month 1 and continue until the end to Month 48. Initial tasks foreseen are to identify experts among academia and industry relevant to include in the construction of the recommended practice, to schedule monthly meetings with the identified group of experts and to define the scope for the recommended practice. At a later stage it is foreseen that workshops will be organized to collect additional input and feedback from all IEA Wind Task 45 participants. The purpose of these workshops is to provide expertise and support the construction of the recommended practice. The support is in the form of comments: oral and in writing. These meetings and workshops will be co-organized and steered by DNV and DTU. The outcome of this subtask is a new recommended practice.

Deliverables

  • D4.1 – First complete version of recommended practices for wind turbine blade recycling for review – Format: word document (DTU – Month 27)
  • D4.2 – Recommended practices for wind turbine blade recycling – Format: word document (DTU – Month 48)

Milestone

M4.1 – Review of first complete version of recommended practices completed (Month 40)

Subtask 4.2 – Coordination with IEC

Subtask lead: DNV

Scope: The goal of this subtask, led by DNV, is to establish a communication channel with the IEC in the preparation of an internationally recommended practice for wind turbine blade recycling. This subtask will start from Month 1 and continue until Month 48. The purpose for the participants in this task is to take part of the discussion with the IEC and make sure that the discussion in the two working groups (IEA Wind Task 45 and IEC) are aligned. The support is in the form of comments: oral and in writing. The support will be provided during a series of meetings and workshop, online and in-person.

Deliverable

  • D4.3 – A series of meetings with the IEC working group on the TS 61400-28-2 – Format: meeting (DNV – Months 3, 9, 15, 21, 27, 33, 39 and 45)
