Barika Shares an Idea

During the winter months, many of the blades of the wind turbines get covered in ice and seize up. To get them running again the ice has to be removed manually. This is time-consuming, dangerous and very costly.

Could we install infrared heat lamps into the towers to de-ice the rotor blades?

Barika's Idea Wins

Judging Panel comments:

Wow! This idea has great potential. We will need to do a cost-based analysis but savings could be huge.

Check Viability of Winning Idea

A cost-based analysis report determines that the idea can:

1. reduce 10% of generation losses as wind farms don’t need to be shut down
2. save up to 1M Kr per wind turbine
3. enhance safety protocols

Infra Red Heat Lamps Installed

In the event of snow or ice, the rotor blade is now stopped in front of the tower, the lamps are turned on and the ice is melted one blade at a time.

Saving Millions Every Year

This simple, but clever idea, now saves a leading European energy supplier millions of US dollars every year. Their wind farms now remain open all year round.

We turned this real-life scenario into a full case study.
