The SALOME project aims to develop innovative atmospheric and mechanical models that can represent the environment and structural loads to which offshore wind turbines are exposed by using relevant measurement data. These will be provided in real time by temperature and vibration sensors and strain gauges spread over optical fibres deployed on wind turbines at the chosen test site in Belgium and/or France. They will be included in a decision support tool (whose time horizon ranges from one day in advance to real-time) aimed at ensuring, at a lower cost, participation in power system balancing. It will ensure dynamic management and predictive control of offshore wind turbines by incorporating mechanical constraints such as ageing and fatigue to provide additional services to the power grid.
