Abstract
An increasing number of wind turbines are being installed at sites where
atmospheric icing and low operating temperatures have a significant effect on
the operation of standard equipment. International Energy Agency; IEA R&D
Wind, started an annex XIX; “Wind Energy in Cold Climates” in 2002. This
international collaboration has gathered information about wind turbine
operation cold climates ever since. Due to the observed need, a three year
extension period was applied. This paper introduces the results until now and
the objectives for the future work, which aim at reducing the cost of wind
electricity produced in cold climates.
