Wind Power

These Danish Wind electric power generators are huge. There electric generator compartments are the size of a 40 passenger schoobus. The turbing blades have a span of the size of a football field. The turbin generator sits atop aam, that is several stories high.

One of these Hull wind energy turbines can generate enough electricity for more than 750 homes.

Assembling these large dannish wind energy electricity genertors requires very large cranes.


Video Description:
Today, under perfect weather, we watched as all three blades for the newest Wind Turbine in Hull, MA
were installed. It took one hour per blade, just as the Vespas installers told us. Rain moved in after the task was completed.
