EAWE members and students are invited to the Summer School “Model Predictive Control for Wind Turbines”, held 13–17 July 2026.
This five-day course combines lectures and hands-on exercises to introduce advanced wind turbine control, with a focus on Model Predictive Control (MPC). Participants will learn modelling, simulation, and controller design, culminating in implementation using OpenFAST.
Programme
Day 1
- Wind energy fundamentals, modelling, and setup
Day 2
- Control basics, load cases, simulations
Day 3
- Reduced-order modelling
Day 4
- Non-linear MPC and optimization
Day 5
- Estimation and full controller implementation
Intended Audience
Students from European universities interested in wind turbine control and simulation.
Participation
Free of charge (travel, accommodation, and meals not included).
Dates
📅 13 July 2026, 09:00 – 17 July 2026, 16:00
