Abstract

A wind turbine component surface, and in particular, a wind turbine blade surface (10) comprising neighbouring areas (12,14) of different ice forming propensity in predetermined positions and a method of applying such a surface (10) to a wind turbine component. In use, the difference in ice forming propensity between neighbouring areas (12,14) readily causes ice to fall from the surface (10), and such a surface (10) is simple to apply.
