Wind, Exclusive Articles, PES Spotlight — 18 April, 2026

Safety signals illuminate obstacles in maritime and aviation transport

Offshore wind farms are often noticed first by their flashing obstruction lights, not the turbines themselves. These signals are safety critical for aviation and shipping and must be explicit in even the harshest of conditions. TÜV SÜD supports manufacturers and operators with independent testing and technical assessment of signal and turbine alike. It also provides certifiable documentation across the wind turbine generator (WTG) lifecycle.

The RBC-D is a yoke for every situation

As turbine platforms grow larger and more powerful, installation demands continue to rise. Longer blades, higher hub heights and tighter construction windows, combined with increasingly complex terrain, are placing new technical and logistical pressures on installation teams. Lifting technology has therefore become a decisive factor in safety, efficiency and overall project economics. Julian Eberhard, CTO of ematec AG, discusses with PES Wind how the RBC-D yoke is designed to meet these evolving challenges.

Europe’s energy system at a crossroads: green energy supply is possible and necessary

The energy transition in Europe is delivering tangible results. Dependence on fossil fuels, particularly in electricity generation, is declining sharply. Renewable energy sources are increasingly dominating the system, which is undergoing constant transformation: from centralised to decentralised structures, baseload generation to flexible supply and from analogue to digital technologies.
