I watched a train with blades & bodies on flatbeds go by. The took up the entire length of the train beds! And I thought they were large!

[@VB-bo5kz]

I need the patience of the truck driver in my life

[@xiv3r]

insane turbine blade

[@fatimasombra]

Meu esposo é motorista dessas carretas que transportam essas pás, aqui no Brasil.

[@ArtfromBerwyn-cw5op]

That is one big blade. That's because it is a blade that is much bigger than the other blades that are smaller because this blade makes them seem smaller relative to this blades size that is much bigger in size than they are.

[@leonvann7109]

What is the unit that's moving the blade with out a truck? Is it an electric cart by a generator?

[@mpaul4584]

What happens to them at end of life?

[@lavafree]

Starts with land and ends with fill

[@windkraftfan_sh]

they are crushed into materials for cement

[@thomasgade226]

@4min, you can just see the corner of a WW2 bunker in Hanstholm

[@kriscalverley2131]

I seen it. Thank you for pointing that out.

[@flytwin1772]

The weight would be really interesting, it´s depending of material for sure, guess they will use Kevlar as well. At least ~35 tons one blade, which is not much then.

[@celalmutlu45]

Glass fiber and carbon fiber using for blade manufacturing.

[@windturbinemanfr]

vestas v236 yay

[@vincentrobinette1507]

These are off-shore scale turbine blades...Are they building these turbines on land? If so, that would be a world record!

[@kristianvongos7237]

Nice filming. Did you ask what the blades weight? What they were made of? If they were made in Denmark?

[@ninus17]

Probably fibreglass or some other composite

[@jensstergard9380]

Including the vehicles the weight of the Vestas transport is about 180 tonnes. The outside of the wings must be glass fiber. Vestas is primarily situated in Western Jutland, mostly in Lem. Found on Vestas homepage: "At Vestas’ factory in Nakskov, Denmark, specialists are developing the blades for the V236-15.0 MW™ prototype using the mold which was built at the factory in Lem, Denmark." The nacelles are made at the former Maersk shipyard 'Lindø', Northeast of Odense.

@@jensstergard9380 haha! Familiar place at Lemm. Damn.... when I was working at Vestas and Totalwind we did maintanance up to the brand new V90. And still some V 27/ 29. V39 lots of V47 and V52. Some V66, ( RCC and VCS ) ( 1.65 and 1.75) Some first V80. And V902MW

At least the driver of the first one got a nice dry warm cab.....

[@Coltnz1]

How many years does it have to run to cancel out the carbon footprint of its manufacture, transport to site and installation?

[@SkullRaven]

Turbine manufacturer Vestas studied the carbon payback period for various turbines. This took into account extraction and manufacturing of raw materials, production of the turbines, their transport, erection, operation, maintenance, dismantling and disposal, and the same for their foundation and the transmission grid. The figure was between seven and nine months, depending on the type of turbine. Other analyses have come up with similar figures.

[@aarone9000]

You are just a half-empty kind of person aren't you?!

[@derekness7900]

They are made from glass and carbon fibre and epoxy resin

[@vplph]

That is a lot of wheels for a blade that is maybe 16 ton a piece? 😅

[@Outside85]

Curious, the Vestas blade is almost rigid, but the Siemens bends under its own weight? Also it really does seem like a happy coincidence that blades from different companies have to go up the same road at the same time... also whatever Siemens is using to move theirs; good grief it is noisy... Edit: also pity the driver of that thing, exposed to the weather and all...

[@mjasenn]

And this comment is why you're in charge of watching KZbin videos showcasing the transportation of component for offshore wind generation units and not the actual transportation.

[@anderspedersen7488]

The blades are headed to the National Test Center for Large Windmills at Østerild abt. 20 km east of the port of Hanstholm, Denmark. That’s why you have 2 different manufacturers going the same way.

[@fabionunesferreiradasilva5641]

👏👏👏👏

[@kriscalverley2131]

I was expecting an electric truck pulling it? Does anybody know how black tires burn? Does anybody know how tires are disposed of? But must be environmentally freindly cause they grow on trees? Oh isnt highway full of hydrocarbons. Back to gravel for electric cars

[@nicks4934]

Should make £3,000,000 per year for say 25 yrs. So £75,000,000. £80 per MWh in UK. Load factor 30%

[@montiro8999]

Load factor is much higher in Uk some turbines push up to 60 percent on the Shetland islands

[@vgstb]

Load factor for Vestas V236-15 MW is validated at 63.5% in nominal North Sea operation. Lifetime before overhaul is 30 years, as published in the life cycle assessment of the turbine.

Wind power is the most efficient technology to produce energy in a safe and environmentally sustainable manner, it is zero emissions, local, inexhaustible, competitive and it creates wealth and jobs. You're the joke.

[@SkullRaven]

@@PistonAvatarGuy So what? We also don't have an unlimited supply of oil, gas, coal, nuclear material, sunshine or water.

The bigger they are. The harder they fall. When a fast wind comes along.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that noone at Vestas has ever thought of that. They're, like, complete novices in this field.

Uhh, jup. Bigger part of renewable energy asks for a bit better kind of machine.... This is for the prototype. Serveral sets of this blade has been already smashed in stress test factory. Thats why the blades of this energy mushroom now go to field test. And probably direct on the testfield certified for stress, endurance and most important real sound and background noise.
