Trends and challenges for wind energy harvesting : workshop, March 30-31, 2015, Coimbra, Portugal

The Strategic Workshop on the trends and challenges for wind energy harvesting is the first open forum organised within the framework of the activities of the TU1304 WINERCOST Action “Wind energy technology reconsideration to enhance the concept of smart future cities”. The state-of-the-art of the wind characteristics in disturbed and non-disturbed environment, the state-of-the-art of the wind energy structures and emerging applications as well as the society acceptance of wind energy technology and related topics are issues that were presented in details and discussed during the two days of the present Strategic Workshop.
