We received great news at the end of last month of the DTBird Anti Bird Rest Prototype project extension from the ELBE Eurocluster Financial Support To Innovation Call: The project is set to end in June 2025.

The aim is to reduce the attractiveness of the floating platform to birds, so they avoid perching or nesting. Hence, the collision risk with the blades is reduced.

Throughout 2024, the team made up of Researcher/Ornithologist Adrián Fernández,  Researcher/Ornithologist Jorge Vallela, AI Software Engineers Jesús Campo & Andrés Baamonde, Head of Manufacturing/Installation Ramón Martín, CTO Javier Díaz and Project Manager Pablo Cos began with the ornithology and testing of various deterrent methods to proceed forward with the Onshore prototype design at our HQ in Madrid.

The prototype has been branded as “DTRepeller”!

For the remaining part of the project, the team aims to move to an Offshore environment to adapt the DTRepeller to a floating platform, manufacture, install, and test it!
