The sustainability of wind turbine blades, from the selection of materials to the manufacturing of blades until the end of life and recycling phase, has become a significant topic of discussion in recent years. New developments in the field of material sciences, recycling technologies and the analysis of the recycling value chain are shaping future perspectives.

Organised by DTU Wind: Department of Wind and Energy Systems, this conference offers lectures, round tables and sessions on the following topics:

New blade materials // bio-composites, recyclable thermosets, thermoplastics, bio-based resins, bio-based carbon fibres // Recycling // Reuse, repurpose, pyrolysis, solvolysis // Recycling value chain // Estimating and mapping wind turbine blade waste, circular economy, life cycle assessment of recycling processes // Future perspective // Design for recycling, recycling of recyclable wind turbine blades, and more.
