This turbine was an off-shore turbine set up on land for testing and research purposes and never intended as a production unit. Once the tests and research were completed it was no longer useful and this was the cheapest and safest method to remove it. Its destruction had nothing to do with being worn out or being in need of rebuilding.
That’s what they should do with all of them. I go past a wind farm on the Hume Highway NSW Australia and more times than not they are still as statutes.
I'm working next door, there were two windmills installed. The planning application was for three temporary research machines. For some reason they rarely ran at the same time, the rumour was the local authority limited the grid connection size, ensuring they didn't become permanent. The first ran 90% compared to the second, and was taken apart carefully with a crane. I suspect a big part of the learning is how to assemble it and replace parts safely. The second windmill being demolished here never actually ran much at all, smells like there was a design issue and it only had scrap value, so it was safely scrapped.
I climbed this turbine in Hunterston many times when it was in service. I'd left SSE by the time this decommissioning occurred. I always thought it was an unnecessarily dramatic decommissioning process but I cant begrudge the lads their fun with explosives. For everyone whinging below in the comments section, May I politely suggest you return to your mothers basements, for you have no clue what you are talking about.
Yeah they really need to windmills often times just get buried in landfills, you can find pictures of thousands of turbine blades just getting dumped off and buried, one of the landfills in casper, wyoming, has 33,000 buried there. its really expensive to recycle them, cheaper to just bury them. There are some other really good comments in here mentioning the problems that windmills have.
When nuclear site can be less than 20 acres and power half a million homes, why do we stand these on every viewpoint of our landscape? Just amazes me how nuclear and hydro that can be turned up and down and do so much get snubbed in favor of these things.
Because nuclear plants also produces completely useless garbage that needs to be contained for half a million years that no one wants to live near either the plant or the place they put the garbage?
There is a nuclear plant 1km away that ran for 35 years and closed in 1990. That will take another 80 years to decommission. Decommissioning will be complete in 2080, but safe storage of the waste fuel rods will take many hundreds of years more. Detals at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunterston_A_nuclear_power_station
"Hey, Jock - did you remember to tighten down those last three bolts so the wind turbine won't fall over?" "What do you think I am? Some kind of mor-... uh, oh..."
I think projects such as Whitelee Wind Farm and others will give energy producers a better understanding of how maintenance and repair are critical in the long term feasibility of wind power. If the initial development cost must be repeated every 15 to 20 years in addition to the demolition and clean up related cost's such as those depicted in this video are to be expected then we need to come up with a better plan.
@@chrisward5626 and you do? -- I think total cost, not only of energy, but of pollution caused by strip mining for the metals, and environmental impact of the operating turbine, are all legitimate questions. Activists on both sides try to make it a black-and-white issue, but any good engineer (or good scientist) realizes that things are rarely black-and-white.
Great, I was working in the field of windpower. I am so happy, that again one monster is removed. It has killed enough birds and insects. But do not forget the concrete in the ground! Hope, that this technology is history soon!
In 1974 I took classes for oceanography.My professor had worked on a project that used wave action to create electric power.This mat would sit on the surface of water.(ocean, lake ,river,etc.)and depending on wind speed determined the output. Whenever a storm was to cause a problem they would just roll up the mat. We have the ability but the powers that be will lose billions.
Right on, i was wondering if they were just gonna blast and let the wind take it where it want or direct it. That pictures shows the cut put it the right where they wanted it.
Actually, by volume, they're mostly fiberglass, a petroleum product. They're also manufactured with petroleum power, transported with petroleum power and erected with petroleum power. No less than nine balsa trees were harvested with petroleum powered chain saws and prepared in a petroleum powered saw mill. This is what they call "green".
No, actually its a very very modern one. Siemens Gamesa found a new testing site or the test ended. Thats a Siemens Gamesa SG 154-7.0. Its a 7MW offshore wind turbine. Right now Siemens Gamesa does their offshore and onshore turbines tests on Østerild.
Why did they spend all that money on these wind turbines a few years ago and now start removing them? It doesn't seem like renewable energy if they don't even last. I guess all the clean energy awareness stuff I did in high school was just a waste of time.
This was built for testing off shore turbines not actual production generation of electricity. You don't build hundreds of turbines without doing some testing first. Once the testing was complete it needed to go.
More non-biodegradable refuse to be buried someplace (fossil fuels used for the tools to cut it up, fossil fuels for the vehicles to haul the pieces away and fossil fuels for the excavators to bury it)
Cause and effect escapes most people who lack critical thinking skills. That's how these things get built. It is so refreshing to read your post and know that I'm not the only one who digs deeper into the main issues which often cause these professional swindlers alot of grief when their exposure takes place. 30 second attention span conditioning won't work on us my friend!

Don’t know why people get so upset over birds it’s not like we are running out of them I have to buy devices to scare them away my buildings because of all the poop they leave. They do make fun target practice with a air rifle though !
Lots of those are going. By the time the reach payback, they are in need of rebuilding. The blades on many are fatigued from cycling of gravity as the blade goes up and on the trip going down.
Not necessarily gravity, probably the most stress comes from the centrifugal spinning of the blades. But yeah, these are designed to last 20 to 25 years, in reality it's about half that.
I think that I shall never see A turbine lovelier than a tree. Indeed, unless all turbines fall I'll never see a tree at all! (with apologies to Ogden Nash)
...and a countless number of birds rejoice! Nice work. These albatrosses never produce as much energy as it takes to manufacture , install, and maintain.
Yesterday in a radio interview some 'expert' was talking about BTU production workers. One coal worker produces 15 times the power as a windmill or solar panel worker. Green energy is insanity. Just ask Texas.
Why? It has nothing to do with frozen natural gas-powered generating facilities. Some Texas wind turbines had problems, but the rest actually did their job and exceeded the expected power generation over last weekend. And turbines work just fine in cold climates--northern states, Canada, northern Europe. They just need to be managed by people who understand that it sometimes gets cold.
The lower member and inclined tension struts were insufficiently severed as clearly can be seen at 1.23 really indicating stupidly poor lateral explosive control. If I were there I would have sacked everyone and used cordite and intumescent flame-cutting PVA, like we used to use in the Navy.
I'm not sure about the history of this wind turbine but so many of these things don't last very long. I've seen several taken down in my area after only a few years. There is a big wind farm in State College, PA and whenever I pass through approximately 1/3 aren't working.
Hi This turbine was installed to perform stress test and observe structural integrity This turbines in particular is meant to be installed in the sea but is much more convenient to put it on land during this particular tests Obviously the get demolished afterwards because they end up very worn out A typical wind turbine (I mean made at least 10 years ago) can last more than 25 years if they get appropriate maintenance. About your wind farm I don’t know where it is and how old are the turbines there Generally the causes of a wind turbine not working for long periods of time are maintenance,unwinding of the cables or they ended their working life and are waiting demolition I hope I helped a bit :)
Because they are essentially north of northern Canada. It's easy to not notice due to how they typically show maps of North America and maps of Europe, but check the latitudes. UK is far north, the only reason that area isn't a frozen wasteland is because of ocean currents. Also check Moscow while you're at it, seems like it's about even with Washington DC due to how they show the maps, really it is also far north. There's a good reason they have Moscow winters, etc..
These monstrosities are a blight on the landscape, have a huge footprint ecologically to create and have a relatively short lifespan. The idea of renewable energy through wind turbines is one of the greatest follies of our time.
A lot have been installed on moorland across Scotland. Nobody wants to quantify the carbon released by displacing and disturbing peat, because peat is very sensitive to trampling, drying out etc. You need to sink thousands of tonnes of concrete to build a turbine plinth, and there is never a plan to recover the concrete at the end of the turbine life cycle. You can't just turf over them with peat and pretend you've restored the habitat that was there before. People ring-fence the carbon offset to the turbine itself rather than the access roads, crane pads etc being installed on untouched peat.
@@stanleyadamson912 And as I type amost one quarter of the UK' electricity is being generated by them and it isn't even particularly windy. Yeah, completely useless.....
From what I understand I don't think wind tubines ever met the criteria that was expected from them. Not to mention they are a bit of an eyesore. And yes, I do understand that this was an experimental model whose time was done.
Looks very cool falling. That’s the greenie renewable power generation in a nutshell. For the millions of dollars those wind power towers cost. The lifespan seams very short and expensive for such unreliable power sores
"Wind Turbine Test Facility" there's the reason it's coming down. normal lifespan is 25+ years with a payback of 6-8 years. This is Scotland. Take a look at the annual wind for this region and then say unreliable.
I didn't think the things even had a life span. Now I see why more and more people are entering the nuclear field. Nuclear power is cleaner, smaller, and gives enormous bang for the buck. Also still improving, Wind and solar can only go so far.
Ends up in a landfill? Solar panels has a 20 year life cykel. Windturbines 10 year. Then you must make new blades? Nuke has 50 year but leaves a radioactive footprint.
Isn't that the truth! You said it. You know some fat cats are buying up as much coal equity as they can, pennies on the dollar, now that they've manipulated a worthlessness of the industry. Like, corn, wheat, hogs, cattle, many others. And now last year, oil, negative value!?! Really!? Someone's gonna, and HAS BEEN benefiting from all this manipulation, back and forth evaluations of the markets.
They want to put 50 windmills from Buffalo, NY to Cleveland, OH in Lake Erie. Lake Erie was a very polluted lake, after 40 yrs all those chemicals / products are now under the sediment. Digging up the lake will release those chemicals back into the water. Also, any spillage from the windmills will hurt the lake environment
They are a nuisance , noisy, light pollution, do not produce enough power, will reduce your ability to sell your land and the property value will go down. No one wants to live near those stupid things.
@@paullee5573 Resorting to insults automatically means that you have no argument and have, therefore, already lost the argument. As for your comment on costs then compare France with Germany.
