Wind Turbine Blade Recycling Project Kicks Off

17th May 2022

GRP Solutions is delighted to be part of a pioneering new project which got properly underway last week when partners in the world-leading scheme met at the University of Strathclyde’s Advanced Composites Group (ACG) facilities and at the Lightweight Manufacturing Centre (LMC) to develop Britain’s first wind turbine blade recycling pilot plant.
Project PRoGrESS is a £2million, three-year scheme seeking to deliver a circular model for wind turbine blades to support the UK’s ambitious climate change targets. Project PRoGrESS aims to commercialise a revolutionary method separating glass-fibre and resin components in composites to recover the glass-fibre component, which can then be reprocessed, moulded and reused.
