Werover Raises $1.7M to Scale Its AI-Powered Wind Turbine Blade Monitoring Technology Across Europe

Founded in Turkey in 2018, Werover quickly expanded to Europe by first incorporating in Germany and later relocating its headquarters to London.

Founded in Turkey in 2018, Werover quickly expanded to Europe by first incorporating in Germany and later relocating its headquarters to London. The company’s Windrover platform has already been deployed in over 400 installations in just 1.5 years.

The system, which operates through a small device mounted on the turbine tower, collects acoustic data from the blades and uses AI algorithms to analyze it in real time, detecting damage and sharing results via its application. This allows for early warnings and timely interventions, preventing major damage and reducing maintenance costs.

Windrover operates with 92% accuracy and enables up to 50% savings in blade maintenance costs for its clients. Thanks to this technology, Werover is already collaborating with leading global energy companies such as TotalEnergies and Fred. Olsen Renewables, as well as major Turkish energy players like Eksim Enerji, Genpa, and Menderes Enerji.

Commenting on the investment, Werover CEO Balca Yılmaz said: “With this funding, we’ll focus on increasing our deployments and customer base across Europe. We are thrilled to bring value to wind energy fields in various regions with our high-tech, innovative product that is set to transform the dynamics of this valuable industry. We’re also proud that some of our customers became investors after experiencing the results firsthand.”

Werover plans to use the new funding to expand installations across Europe, accelerate its technology development, and strengthen its presence in global markets.
