About the project
In the project, 30 first-of-a-kind robotic systems for wind turbine generator rotor blades repair are manufactured and developed by Aerones. This will enable faster leading-edge repair tasks and in similar or better quality than human personnel. The robotic rotor blade leading edge repair services will make production of wind energy more efficient, affordable and sustainable, while also considerably reducing the risks associated with human personnel working at heights.
Impact of the project:
Faster turbine repairs within 18 hours lead to reduction of 67% in repair downtime, avoiding 161,349 tons of CO2 emissions over a decade and enabling the production of additional 918,320 MWh in renewable energy.
Funding instrument Innovation Fund
Spinverse’s role
Spinverse experts supported Aerones with Innovation Fund project preparation services.
Spinverse provided a solid framework for structuring the proposal content and effectively highlighted areas that needed further improvement. What we appreciated the most was their advice, drawn from their extensive experience with various proposals.This added a valuable layer of expertise and significantly enhanced the quality of our final submission.

About the project
The LIFE Lit4Nature aims to establish a stronger, evidence-based system for biodiversity conservation and restoration across Lithuania. Major focus will be placed on strengthening the national biodiversity monitoring system, improving data collection and integration and on introducing innovative monitoring approaches to support evidence-based conservation and restoration decisions.
Impact of the project:
The project aims to boost stronger biodiversity and ecosystem recovery across Lithuania through nationwide conservation and restoration. Further, it wants to achieve better national coordination for efficient and well targeted conservation measures and their funding.
Funding instrument LIFE Programme
Spinverse’s role
Spinverse experts supported the coordinator throughout the two-stage LIFE Strategic Nature Project application process from concept note development to submitting the final proposal.
The support included workshops that brought together the proposal team to sharpen the project concept and focus the application on the most relevant and critical aspects of Lithuania's
Prioritised Action Framework for Natura 2000 and the forthcoming National Restoration Plan.
Spinverse’s strategic guidance, hands-on support and thorough quality reviews helped us focus on the critical aspects, strengthen the proposal logic and present its impacts convincingly. Their LIFE expertise gave our team confidence and contributed significantly to the proposal’s high quality and successful funding outcome.”
