Welcome to the
Circular Wind Knowlegde Hub
On this platform, you can gain knowledge on how to transition towards a circular wind industry
Whether you’re involved in business, policy, or academia—and whether your focus is on wind energy production, industrial recycling, composite manufacturing, or turbine construction and decommissioning—this platform connects you with new partners, cutting-edge innovations, and smart tools to support your journey toward a 100% circular European wind industry.
Our Knowledge Hub features three key components:
- Matchmaking Tool – Connect with stakeholders across Europe involved in wind turbine recycling.
- Recycling Technologies Database – Explore the latest technological advancements driving the circular wind industry.
- Transition Support Tools – Access best practices, decision-support systems, cost-benefit assessments, and other resources to help transition to circular business models.
This digital platform is part of EoLO-HUBs, a HORIZON-funded initiative by the European Union. EoLO-HUBs is committed to advancing a fully circular wind industry by developing new decommissioning and recycling technologies for wind turbine blades. The platform also serves as a connection hub, fostering collaboration and the growth of regional supply chains focused on turbine recycling.
EoLO-HUBs brings together 17 partners from across Europe (NL, GB, DE, SP, FR, IT), working on scientific research, technological innovation, and building an open network to share expertise on Wind Turbine Blade (WTB) Recycling.
