Sandia researchers wrap up Defense and Disaster Deployable Turbine (D3T) project, develop guidelines

Sandia researchers have devised a new set of design guidelines and procurement specifications that help the wind energy industry and the U.S. military develop and evaluate rapidly deployable wind energy systems for use in defense and disaster-response applications.

The Defense and Disaster Deployable Turbine, or D3T, project was funded by DOE’s Wind Energy Technologies Office to assess the potential market for deployable wind systems, define the design guidelines for these systems and facilitate engagement between the wind energy industry and the military.
