Amazing Way They Build the World Largest Wind Turbines in Middle of the Sea

[@bainracing]

There's nothing amazing about these environmental disasters!

[@johnryan8859]

As opposed to the environmental disaster caused by using fossil fuels

[@bainracing]

@johnryan8859 Oh, here come the whataboutism! Genius! Next, you'll tell me co2 causes global warming! You're a master mind!

[@skitown11]

Because Republicans aren't smart enough to create them?

[@williamwallace5683]

@johnryan 8859. Let’s look at that coming comparison by green energy shall we. O yes turbines Let’s compare the not so green elements mined from raw earth right out of the ground to cater for batteries magnets frame and blades of turbines solar and battery components. Neodymium mined in china. Boron Praseodymium Dysprosium Bisphenol A cobalt and lithium. Then steel copper fibreglass and not forgetting Balsa wood from the Amazon Forrest’s for the turbine blades. Put that altogether with thousands of tonnes of cement by fossil fuel trucks and machinery ripping up pristine Forrest’s such as Chalumbin and lotus creek where native koalas and Greater glider populations are devistated And that besides the ocean echo and whale and sea life devastation and you have green energy come to the rescue to save the planet by destroying it. Such hypocrisy isn’t it.

[@williamwallace5683]

Those Forrest’s are but two in North Queensland Forrest’s Australia by the way and more devastating for our native wildlife like koalas and Greater Glider devistate loosing their habitates and any more of these things will put make these animals near extinct.

[@19bobert]

how much will it cost, by the tax payer, how much fossil fuel will it take to build and how many years to have it pay that money back? NEVER

[@oddvardmyrnes9040]

This method of generating electricity is the least cost-effective way imaginable. When the UK announced a tender for wind license operators, they got NOBODY!!!! Why? Nobody want to lose money.

[@akyhne]

That was about onshore turbine licences.

[@oddvardmyrnes9040]

@@akyhne .. I stand corrected. But why would it be different with offshore wind? Cost for installation & maintenance is even higher. Blades are trashed by water particles in the air, hail, snow & rain. Towers swing & heave with the swells, and everything is a mess as I understand it. Swapping mechanical components is whether dependent. Downtime is unpredictable. Am I wrong?

[@akyhne]

@@oddvardmyrnes9040 The larger turbine you build, the smaller the cost per KWh. Although wind turbines on water are in general more expensive, in 1:1 cost.

[@rickrys2729]

Great to see the manufacturing process up close. A good reason to be optimistic for renewable power.

[@thehark6247]

dont kid yourself , impressively not viable, total up the toxicity of the components production and "carbon footprint", it will never save enough to clean up its production mess. Co2 and otherwise

[@rickrys2729]

Total up the toxicity of fossil; fuels - wind and solar are much better. Solar and wind are the main sources of new clean power. There is some embedded energy to make them and recycling at end of life is improving. @@thehark6247

[@johnryan8859]

​@@thehark6247OK genius instead of being a naysayer put your efforts in to coming up with a solution

[@fredconnolly3168]

Solution? Drill baby DRILL!!😊

Excellent presentation!

[@garymiller5937]

Very interesting. i had never seen the manufacturing and installation of the towers before. Thank you! 😊😊😊❤❤❤

That's not the point of clean energy and the environment

[@JOSHOUAWALDHORN]

[@charlespierce3647]

Big waste of money

[@Chips2323]

Lets see the Oceans are full of what, SALT, what does salt do over time.

[@Tom-dt4ic]

So happy that you know better.

[@johnryan8859]

Do you have a better solution? Probably NOT. Another naysayer

[@l1u1c1k]

I wonder how these will affect weather patterns when they become to abundant .

[@Tom-dt4ic]

Not at all. Weather is big. We are small.

[@johncorlett3699]

and the ocean current flows

[@josephdaly8333]

Anything that leads to a reduction in the use of fossil fuels is more than welcome. Let’s hope the design and engineering can withstand the storms that are an increasing feature of our weather.

[@Mayangone]

I read that the largest wind turbine installed off the coast of Fujian is 16MW, which is even larger than Siemen's.

[@thomaspepper2201]

The up front co-2 carbon produced in the mining, making the material, transporting installing and start-up with the build will never regain or use up its carbon in the life of the wind mill. All they do is hide the math for someone to get rich on a expensive generator over salt water.

[@e2dub]

Prove it.

[@wobby1516]

And burning fossil fuels are better? The components used in a wind farm can be recycled, try doing that with coal, gas and oil.

[@trixxdy4782]

Lol, just like elon being green with all his tesla bateries and his rockets burning fossel fuels to launch. But dont question as the sheep will attach you. Solar panels aint recycled nor the multi composited wind farms made of rare metals and fiberglass. Thats without all the carbon footprints to go green. I see a world where fossil fueld electricity is supported by green. But anyone that believes that only green should be used. Should have all their power from green same with electric cars. If you fully support and preach their use then only charge them with green energy.

[@stevemurphy5523]

Nonsense, you make up this foolishness then believe it.

[@tonymillar2160]

Does not make any sense. How then would they recover their money.

[@JAK-rt8im]

I have heard that the mill only has a lifespan of 25 years and no way to recycle the glass blades. So look a new way to pollute our planet plus they are ugly, let’s not talk about the government subsidies.
