Noise Reduction in Wind Turbines
Modern wind turbines are more powerful and more complex than ever before. As a result, noise reduction – the targeted minimisation of sound generated during operation – is becoming increasingly important. This is the only way to ensure reliable operation, compliance with legal requirements, and acceptance by local communities.
New, high-performance turbine types often generate more tonal noise due to
optimised drive trains, improved aerodynamics, wider operating ranges, larger rotor diameters, and taller towers.
Many people – especially local residents – perceive these tones as particularly disturbing.
Even for regulatory authorities, this does not sound good at all. Failure to comply with legal standards can result in severe penalties – up to and including the suspension of operation.
Significant losses in yield are the consequence.
Wölfel provides the right solutions:
with innovative systems for active and passive noise reduction, tonalities can be effectively reduced.
Reliably, efficiently, and already proven in practice.
