The recording of our stakeholder workshop From End-of-Life Blades to Circular Products – Technologies, Prototypes and Market Pathways is now available to watch on YouTube.
This is REFRESH’s second stakeholder workshop and aimed to present the latest progress of the project in advancing circular solutions for the recycling and re-manufacturing of wind turbine blades.
Building on the outcomes of the first workshop held on 17th November 2025, this event shifted the focus from recycling technologies to the downstream stages of the value chain, including eco-design strategies, prototype development, traceability systems, sustainability performance, and market uptake of recycled materials.
