The Öresund region has potential to be one of the leading centres for efficient production and use of wind based energy – many leading companies are already working in the region. In the project the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and Lund University (LTH) will join in an effort to guarantee that the wind industry can have access to competent personnel and a word leading knowledge exists at the participating partners, the departments of Informatics and Mathematical Modelling (IMM), Electrical Engineering (CET), Risö wind research centre (RISÖ) at DTU, and the Department of Mathematical Statistics at LTH.
Education and knowledge development shall be coordinated with joint courses in the engineering programs, in order to make the Öresund region an internationally visible and attractive region for potential new students, and establishment of new companies.
The project has access to a full scale experimental wind park at Bornholm for optimization, integration, safety studies, etc.
