Ceit to showcase its capabilities for the wind industry at the WindEurope 2022 international event

The leading companies in the European wind energy sector will attend the WindEurope international event that will be held at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre BEC! in Barakaldo (Bizkaia) between April 5 and 7

The Ceit technology centre will exhibit its latest onshore and offshore wind energy-related technological solutions at its stand in the Basque Energy Cluster area (1D20)

The main players in the European wind energy value chain will once again come together between April 5 and 7 at WindEurope 2022, which will be held at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre, BEC! in Barakaldo (Bizkaia). The event will showcase the latest breakthroughs in the sector, which is particularly important as wind is set to become one of the main sources of electricity on the continent.

Over the course of three days, guests will be able to take part in a comprehensive conference programme, along with multiple networking sessions, different themed areas, and the opportunity to meet up with other key industry players on the exhibition floor.

The Ceit technology centre is a member of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance (BRTA) and will have a prominent presence at the fair at its stand (1D20) alongside the Basque Energy Cluster. The technology centre will present its solutions for the energy sector at its stand, ranging from designing and developing new mechanical, structural and electronic components, and digitalising operations and maintenance, such as implementing new remote monitoring systems and corrosion detection and communications systems in hostile environments (e.g. underwater), to recycling components in order to promote the circular economy.

More than twenty years of experience in collaborating with the leading wind energy companies has allowed the technology centre to offer ad hoc onshore and offshore wind energy solutions to the industry. In this regard, as Ainhoa Cortés, deputy director of Electronic Systems and Communications Group at Ceit, explained, “we are working on different projects for the European wind sector, such as Watereye, which is aimed at increasing the efficiency of offshore wind farms by reducing their operation and maintenance costs”.

WindEurope, the voice of European wind energy
The fair is returning to the Basque Country in an in-person format with a programme that will include the participation of more than 300 speakers and 70 sessions dealing with the strategies and initiatives that Europe needs to create more renewable energy, such as maintaining a strong supply chain, reducing high energy prices and committing to floating wind power, circularity, sustainability and digitalisation.

Alongside the exhibition space, WindEurope will feature an exhibition showcasing the latest developments in the wind energy sector, and a conference addressing all of the key issues relating to the market, technology and policies. Please visit the event website for more information and to register.
