Damage to wind turbine blades can be induced by lightning, fatigue loads, accumulation of icing on the blade surfaces and the exposure of blades to airborne particulates, causing so-called leading edge erosion. . Abstract: A review of the root causes and mechanisms of damage and failure to wind turbine blades is presented in this paper. For operators, understanding the most common blade issues and implementing effective prevention strategies is essential to ensure consistent energy. . Rotor blades are critical components of wind turbines, enduring various weather conditions and high speeds. It's crucial to monitor their condition closely to ensure optimal performance and safety. Unlike enclosed mechanical systems, blades must endure a wide variety of external stressors, which increases their failure rate.
