The use of wind turbine has exploded the last decade. Wind turbine parks of today consisting of hundreds of wind turbines have become common in Europe and Scandinavia. Loss in efficiency and performance may be a challenge due to limited moisture barriers and strong UV irradiation in combination with high temperatures.
