On 4-5 November, Eolis 2021 will put the spotlight again on what needs to happen when a wind farm reaches the end of its operational lifetime.
In order to reach carbon neutrality, Europe will have to significantly expand its wind capacity, both on- and offshore. But this expansion won’t have to all happen on new sites, and lifetime extensions and repowering will play a crucial role in ensuring a successful energy transition.
Some assets that won’t be lifetime-extended will have to be decommissioned, either for refurbishing and re-deployment, or dismantling and recycling.
In all these areas new solutions and business models are arising.
