At IEA Wind Task 43, we are excited to be part of the new WeDoWind open innovation ecosystem, which helps people in the wind energy sector to exploit the full value of their data! It connects you with open data, code, lecture material, information models, best practices and guidelines for using and publishing code and data. It provides you with opportunities to develop code and reference methods collaboratively or in competition with each other, to co-create information models and to work on best practices and guidelines collaboratively. Finally, it connects you with like-minded people, and potential project partners, employees or employers. The following IEA Wind Task 43 sub-working groups are part of WeDoWind: 👉 The "Ontology development group" in Working Group 1 meets in The Information Modelling Community. 👉 The TechnoPortal ontology hosting portal developed in Working Group 1 is available at The WeDoWind Ontology Publishing Portal. 👉 The IEA Wind Task 43 Data User Group in Working Group 3 meets in the Data and Code Users' Community. 👉 The IEA Wind Task 43 Open-Source Community in Working Group 3 meets in the Open-Source Data and Code Community Find out more here on in the video below: https://lnkd.in/eEdfBbxt Join IEA Wind Task 43 here: https://lnkd.in/eVUMp8Se OST – Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences Departement Technik OST IET Institut für Energietechnik Sarah Barber

The deadline for submitting abstracts to WESC2025 has been extended to Jan. 31st, and we'd love to receive your submission if you are working on anything to do with wind energy and digitalisation, including data management and knowledge engineering, FAIR data, culture, data sharing and skills, use cases and demonstrations!

At the Wind Energy Science Conference WESC2025 in Nantes from 24th-27th June 2025, we at IEA Wind Task 43 are organising a Mini-Symposium "Exploiting the potential of digitalisation in wind energy"! The abstract submission deadline is on Jan. 15th! This Mini-Symposium aims to discuss the latest research and innovation in the area of wind energy digitalisation, with the following topic areas: 👉 Data management and knowledge engineering: topics related to data management and knowledge engineering, including FAIR data, data standards, metadata, data modelling, databases, schema, ontologies and semantic artefacts, semantic web, digital twin architectures and frameworks, common vocabularies, knowledge-based systems, knowledge bases, knowledge graphs, decision support systems, AI-based systems and LLMs. 👉 Culture, data sharing and skills: topics related to organisational culture, improving data sharing and skills, including studies and experience on how organisational culture affects digitalisation, examples and methods for improving data sharing in wind energy, studies and methodologies for digital skills in wind energy. 👉 Use cases and demonstrations: topics related to use cases and demonstrations, such as data sharing initiatives, risk-based maintenance, decision support systems and the Wind Resource Assessment Data Model.

In the IEA Wind Task 43 Working Group 1 (Data) monthly meeting yesterday, we had the great pleasure of hearing the incredibly knowledgeable Sirko Schindler from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) talking about the development of an open transport metadata schema. We are hoping to transfer some of this knowledge, as well the the learning experiences, to our work on sematic artefacts in IEA Wind Task 43.

At the last IEA Wind Task 43 monthly meeting, we heard from Edward Fagan (Zero Nexus) and Gareth O'Brien (Microsoft) about their Digital Skills Mapping activity, which is part of our work on understanding how organisational culture affects digitalisation in wind energy. The three steps of this activity are: 👉 1. Identify roles in the wind energy lifecycle to analyse 👉 2. Perform a digital skills gap analysis 👉 3. Describe new roles & competences for a digitalised sector If you are interested in digital skills and skills mapping, and want to join forces to share experiences or align activities, please contact Sarah Barber or sign up for WG2 under "Join us" here: https://lnkd.in/eVUMp8Se OST – Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences Departement Technik OST IET Institut für Energietechnik #windenergy #wedowind #digitalskills

Fed up of SCADA alarm codes? Want to develop data cleaning code and data standards together with other wind energy data users? Then it's not too late to sign up for our IEA Wind Task 43 data user group launch event on Dec. 6th! https://lnkd.in/ez6iE_rP

On Dec. 6th we are launching the new IEA Wind Task 43 data user group, which aims to serve as a catalyst in streamlining data analytics within the wind industry. 👉 We want to foster innovation and efficiency by refining and enhancing the processes involved in analysing data generated from wind energy assets. By leading advancements in this field, we strive to optimise the performance and reliability of wind energy systems, contributing to the broader goal of sustainable energy production. 👉 In this IEA Wind Task 43 Webinar Series – Launch of the new “IEA Wind Task 43 data user group”: a new framework for SCADA events and alarm systems, we will focus on identifying ways SCADA alarm codes/events can be effectively used for fault diagnosis, predictive maintenance, root cause analysis and performance optimisation. 👉 If you work with SCADA error codes, you will know that it can be time-consuming to obtain, understand and make them machine-readable. We suggest a unified model for sharing SCADA error codes. But how should this model be built and how should it work? That’s up to the users to define! We will start off this discussion today.
