DESCRIPTION:Wind energy is a vital technology in the global fight against c
 limate change. It has the lowest CO2 emissions and is one of the cheapest 
 sources of renewable energy. However\, the pressure for innovative technol
 ogies is still high due to several challenges\, including the high offshor
 e wind farm costs\, the access difficulties of monitoring offshore wind tu
 rbines\, grid reliability and integration issues\, end-of-life issues and 
 the uncertainty of operation in complex terrain and the interaction of win
 d farms with the atmospheric boundary layers.\n\nIn order to solve these c
 hallenges\, there is an enormous untapped potential for Swiss innovation a
 nd technology to be exported to the rapidly growing wind energy market! Th
 e interdisciplinary nature of wind energy means that there are countless a
 pplication possibilities – from AI to Big Data to Data Analytics to Smar
 t Composites to Microelectronics to Smart Sensors to Control Solutions and
  much more. You will leave this event understanding the basics of wind ene
 rgy technology as well as the key technological challenges and potential i
 nnovative solutions in this high-potential market. Finally\, the need for 
 an inclusive space for Open Innovation and Cooperative Collaboration withi
 n the wind energy industry is discussed\, with a focus on the importance o
 f diversity in the energy sector\n\nSpeaker(s): Sarah Barber\, \n\nAgenda:

 lobal fight against climate change. It has the lowest CO2 emissions and is
  one of the cheapest sources of renewable energy. However\, the pressure f
 or innovative technologies is still high due to several challenges\, inclu

 ring offshore wind turbines\, grid reliability and integration issues\, en
 d-of-life issues and the uncertainty of operation in complex terrain and t
