Is icing and issue for the megawatt turbines on the coastline:First results of Pori 8 MW wind farm
Icing has been observed to prevent the operation of standard wind turbines in harsh arctic conditions. In addition to the fell areas of Nordic countries, atmospheric icing is observed in the other parts of Europe. The frequency of atmospheric icing events has been observed to increase with elevation...
