What I see is great engineering, with excellent preparation. It also shows only a few technicians/operators are required. Nice!

Worked on a windmill farm in Mojave California for mortensen we built a Libra 13000 with a 430 ft boom it came in on 49 truckloads it took seven men a week to build it and it was awesome biggest f****** thing I've ever been very proud to be on that job operating engineers local 12 God bless America

Yep,many studies have shown it takes about 9 months or so for a big wind turbine to repay its embodied energy, after that maintenance is a tiny fraction of the energy it produces.

@stevefrazier221419 күн бұрын
That wind mill will never off set the carbon footprint created, in order to manufacture it and the equipment created to set it up…imagine how many people were involved in getting the funding, designing, manufacturing, delivering and how much traveling they had to do. It’s like people who drive electric cars and pretend they are doing it for the environment, then take a trans Atlantic flight for vacation…😂

Why would Manitowoc need to make a move? Manitowoc crawlers have been left out in the dust for a long time, easily surpassed everywhere by Demag/Tadano and Liebherr. The only place where you still see Manitowoc Crawlers working in the Wind industry is the USA and even those are rare for Wind Work. American stubborn leaders at Manitowoc dictacted the end of their once profitable crawler line

When you tot up all the energy, raw materials, hundreds of tons of concrete in the base, all the resins, fiberglass, copper, plastic, rubber and goodness knows what else into each turbine then the astronomical cost of installing the damn things, how on earth is this ‘progress’? How can it help the environment? It’s such a load of BS.
