MuTech - Specialists in wind turbine noise reduction

MuTech specializes in understanding and reducing wind turbine noise. We help turbine manufacturers, wind park owners and operators realise more of their turbines’ energy potential while reducing the impact on nearby communities.

Our work builds on more than a decade of research at TU Delft. We combine blade technology, acoustic measurements and engineering expertise to help our clients in two ways:

MuteSkin® — Less noise. More energy. Same simplicity.

MuteSkin is a new class of wind turbine noise reduction technology. It uses permeability to reduce noise significantly more than conventional serrations, potentially enabling up to 8% more annual energy production on noise-constrained turbines. Available for new turbines and retrofit applications, MuteSkin combines straightforward installation, passive operation and minimal impact on aerodynamic performance.

MuTech Acoustic Insights™ — Key insights to reduce wind turbine noise.

MuTech Acoustic Insights™ helps you understand where noise originates, what causes it and how to reduce it. We combine extensive field experience, our purpose-built acoustic array and custom beamforming algorithms to map noise and isolate contributions from individual turbine components and blade sections. This allows us to identify aerodynamic, mechanical and add-on noise sources. We then work alongside you to identify, plan, implement and assess practical noise reduction measures.

Whatever your wind turbine noise challenge, we’d be happy to hear about it and discuss how we can help. We look forward to meeting you at WindEnergy Hamburg.
