... capabilities to perform their duties in icy conditions, which may, at worst-case scenarios, interrupt the construction or operation of wind farms. Nordic countries, compromising of Finland, Sweden, and Estonia, are in a planning phase to build more than 5,000 offshore windmills, that require year round...

..., are transported without damage to a construction site and installed. EDC further enables long-term remote acquisition of measured data and the real-time transmission of the data from an in-service structure through an IoT-based cloud system. This technology offers endless possibilities to connect and integrate...
