The provided text comprehensively examines the evolution of wind turbine technology, focusing on the shift from conventional designs to adaptive systems capable of responding to diverse environmental challenges. It details various weather-induced stresses that impact turbine performance and longevity, from high winds and icing to extreme heat and low wind periods. The document then explores two main pathways of adaptation: physical transformations like morphing and foldable blades for enhanced resilience, and operational intelligence through AI-driven control systems and advanced sensor networks for real-time optimization. Finally, it discusses the economic rationale for these innovations, emphasizing their role in reducing the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) and expanding viable wind resource locations.

Research done with the help of artificial intelligence, and presented by two AI-generated hosts.
