Abstract
A topical issue globally is the development and implementation of renewable energy sources for sustainable development. To meet current requirements, the research in this paper is directed towards finding solutions to increase the performance and efficiency of wind power plants by implementing innovative solutions for hollow roller bearings developed through the use of sustainable growth programs in the field of green energy. Another solution that has the effect of increasing wind power performance consists of the implementation of a new large-size lubrication system for large-size bearings in wind energy units, which will increase their durability by developing maintenance capabilities. In this research, we will explore the possibility of introducing an innovative automated lubrication system in hollow roller bearings. The main results of the research, the innovative constructive solutions, will lead to important savings by lowering wind farm maintenance costs, increasing the durability of large bearings, and increasing the energy efficiency and yield of the whole system. The expected impact of implementing the solutions found will mainly be in the field of sustainable growth and environmental development.
Highlights

Summary
Wind power is currently one of the most important alternative sources of renewable energy, offering the major advantage of zero emissions of greenhouse gases by reducing and even eliminating the use of fossil fuels. Implementation of wind power projects aiming at building wind turbines that produce more energy, reducing costs in the context of sustainable development, has been a major concern in recent years. Research in recent years has provided an overview of different solutions to develop a new generation of wind turbines, and feasible and technological trends in wind power generation that could reduce costs. It is necessary to find solutions to improve the operation and reliability of wind turbines, and the solutions proposed in the present paper follow this direction Another technical solution, consisting of the implementation of a new concept, “the adaptive-blade concept in wind-power applications”, is presented in [4]. One of the technological challenges in the wind energy field is the development of a new generation of feasible, improved turbines, which further reduce production costs. Ref. [6] discusses the analysis requirements for the design and operation of the main bearings in modern multi-megawatt wind turbines, with a view to finding technical solutions for bearings with high reliability and profitability
