CRANE-LESS ERECTION/DE-ERECTION, A BOON 2 WIND ENERGY INDUSTRY - dg discourse
The involvement of giant cranes in wind turbine erection or replacement maintenance is expensive and cumbersome. Nothing like that if we could subtract this totally. Crane less method is getting developed worldwide to address this issue. India is also not behind and has done many successful innovations.
CRANE-LESS ERECTION/DE-ERECTION, A BOON 2 WIND ENERGY INDUSTRY - dg discourse
Wind turbines are getting bigger every year. When I joined the wind energy sector, the maximum turbine in India was 350 KW, and now it has grown up to 3.4 MW. The trend towards gigantism was started by Vestas globally. From its 55 KW model in 1981 to 500 KW in 1995 and then to 2MW in 1999 to 5.6 MW in 2019. Globally, the trend is to make higher capacity turbines for better ROI. Manufacturers like Vestas and GE are introducing 10 and 12 MW turbines soon. The blade size and the tower height is also increasing simultaneously.
