Gigantic rotor blades reach Lennestadt-a wind power spectacle!
Gigantic rotor blades reach Lennestadt-a wind power spectacle!
In the night of Thursday, an important logistical company brought the first three heavy transports with rotor blades for wind turbines to the Sauerland. These transports are part of a comprehensive project for the construction of wind turbines that could change the region sustainably.
The arrival of the heavy transport
The three heavy transports, each of which transported 78 meters long and 27 tons of rotor blades, have successfully achieved their destination in the Olpe district. The onlookers who had positioned themselves along the route were witnesses to a rare spectacle. This arrival marks the beginning of a new era of renewable energies in the region.
The transport route and challenges
starting at 10 p.m. at night, the transports of Cuxhaven drove across several German cities to the Sauerland. Although the overall route was long and challenging, the last stage was almost without difficulty. Due to the sparse traffic on the country roads, the drivers were partly at speeds of up to 50 km/h.
However, tight curves and in particular the roundabouts required precise maneuvering. The Finnentrop roundabout was a special challenge because it had been classified as too narrow for heavy trucks. The transports by Transport this roundabout by plan to turn to Lenhausen and continue their journey.
progress of project work
After arriving at the destination, the rotor blades are to be unloaded with cranes on Thursday afternoon. In the future you will be brought to the final location in the forest with a special self -driving machine, which is known for your maneuverability; This can maneuver in narrow paths and is therefore ideal for such transports.
In the coming nights, further transports are already planned that bring additional components for a total of four wind turbines. These wind turbines, which reach heights between 180 and 246 meters, are a yardstick for the transition to sustainable energy sources in the region.
meaning for the region
The arrival of these rotor blades could not only improve the energy supply in the Sauerland, but also also set new impulses for the local economy. The construction of the wind turbines is expected to create jobs and attract investments in the infrastructure. In addition, the success of this project could serve as a model for future initiatives to use renewable energies and make the region a pioneer in the field of sustainable development.
With the upcoming heavy transports and the construction of the wind turbines, the Sauerland is facing an exciting period of change and progress in the strategy for clean energy.
