The main objective of the MIAMI project is the development of a new multimaterial component with high structural requirements for the offshore wind sector, demonstrating technically and economically the advantages of using composites in typically offshore structures. The implementation of composites will lead to a reduction of costs derived from both the transport and installation, as well as their maintenance and operation. Ultimately the cost of power generation will be reduced in line with the main drivers of the sector. This will be achieved thanks to significant improvements in terms of durability and weight reduction of critical components of the wind turbine. AIMEN plays a prominent role in the MIAMI project, collaborating in the design of the transition part, carrying out a detailed study of the materials to be used based on its mechanical and corrosion resistance and developing monitoring techniques for the materials in service.
