“The fossils won’t be of the towers, by and large — those are made of metal, which can be recycled,” Professor Zalasiewicz said. “The enormous wind turbine blades, though, are made of materials like ...

TNO, in collaboration with several partners, is working on the three-year CIRCLE4WIN project to develop a commercially viable method for recycling composite wind turbine blades. In addition to the ...

A wind turbine damaged by lightning on Radford's Run wind farm north of Decatur along U.S. 51 will have to be taken down and replaced.

TNO conducted detailed measurements of precipitation in the North Sea for a year. Analysis of this data (pdf) revealed that about 30% of the annual erosion damage to wind turbine blades occurs within ...
