Knowledge Centre WMC

The Knowledge Centre WMC (Wind turbine Materials and Constructions) carries out research on the materials, components and structures for wind turbines. The former WMC-Group of the Delft University of Technology continues its work as the new foundation Knowledge Centre WMC that has been founded by the Delft University of Technology and the Energy research Centre of the Netherlands (ECN) .

Since September 2003, the Knowledge Centre WMC is located at a new test facility in the northern part of The Netherlands. In the various research projects experimental and numerical work is combined. Fundamental research projects (e.g. on new materials) as well as contract work for the industry (e.g. full scale blade testing or component verification tests) is carried out. WMC contributes to national and international committees.
