Abstract
A wind turbine blade () is described having a serrated trailing edge (). Splitter plates () are provided on the blade, to reduce operational noise. Each splitter plate () is arranged to extend at least partly into a space in between adjacent serrations. The splitter plates can be formed integrally with the serrations, or attached to existing serrations as a retrofit solution. The serrations with the splitter plates can be provided as a trailing edge panel () for attachment to the trailing edge of an existing wind turbine blade.
