- Virtual research seminar on sustainable composite materials for wind blades, jointly organised by the Bristol Composites Institute and the ORE Catapult.
The Wind Blade Research Hub (WBRH) is a five-year research partnership between the Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult and the University of Bristol. The overarching objective of the WBRH is to support and fund wind turbine blade research that will increase the environmental and financial sustainability of wind energy. The research outcomes will accelerate the uptake of new technologies and advance future offshore wind blade design and manufacture.
