Abstract
Disclosed is a wind turbine blade extending from a root end to a tip end, the wind turbine blade comprising a root region, and an airfoil region comprising the tip, a pressure side, a suction side and a chord extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge. The wind turbine blade comprises a leading edge protection element at the leading edge of the wind turbine blade. The leading edge protection element extends in a longitudinal direction between an outboard end and an inboard end and comprises a first section extending from the outboard end to a first section position, wherein the first section is made of a first erosion protection material having a first erosion resistance, and a second section extending from the first section position to a second section position, wherein the second section is made of a second erosion protective material having a second erosion resistance. The first erosion resistance is larger than the second erosion resistance.
