9th Annual Wind Blade Materials Innovation and Sustainability Forum

About the Conference

As the wind energy sector accelerates toward greater sustainability and innovation, TBM Group is proud to host the 9th edition of the forum dedicated to advancing materials and manufacturing in wind blade technology. This year’s event will convene leading experts, engineers, and innovators in Istanbul to explore the evolving intersection of material science, recyclability, supply chain resilience, and environmental responsibility. With an increased industry push toward circularity, improved lifecycle performance, and sustainable design, this forum offers a unique opportunity to benchmark best practices, explore cutting-edge developments, and address shared challenges across the wind energy value chain.

Key Themes

The forum will cover several key themes, including:

• Sustainable material innovation: bio-resins, natural fibers & recycled composites

• Design for disassembly, recyclability, and lifetime extension

• Circular economy strategies and end-of-life blade solutions

• Sustainable manufacturing processes and energy-efficient production

• Supply chain security, pre-cured material sourcing, and quality assurance

• Logistics challenges for large blades: onshore vs offshore transport

• Meeting developer demands and ensuring timely delivery

Why Attend?

Attendees will have the chance to benchmark innovative material advancements with global experts, understand the challenges and solutions in wind blade recycling, gain insight into developer requirements and manufacturing expectations, and network with key stakeholders in the wind energy ecosystem. The event will also explore the latest in 3D reinforced foam cores, quality assurance, and inspection practices, along with discussions on industry readiness and logistics innovations through curated panels.
