BBB begleitet Windparkrealisierung Produkte Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie Windparks 8. Februar 20148. Februar 2014 Werbung Monitoring of wind farm construction works Fortlaufende Chronik einer Bauüberwachung BBB-Ingenieur Günter Laubinger ist aktuell mit der Begleitung der Bauphase des Windparks Wettendorf-Bottendorf II betreut. Es geht um die Erweiterung des bestehenden Windparks Wettendorf-Bottendorf I, der in den Jahren 2003 bis 2007 ebenfalls von der BBB Umwelttechnik GmbH (BBB) geplant und realisiert wurde. Im Auftrag der dänischen Firma „K/S Hydrovind VI“ wird der Windpark, der bislang aus acht Fuhrländer-Windenergieanlagen (WEA) der 2,5-MW-Klasse besteht, nun um fünf Anlagen des Typs GE 2.85 erweitert. In der vorliegenden Präsentation mit dem Arbeitstitel „Laubingers Bautagebuch“ stellt der BBB-Mitarbeiter beispielhaft die notwendigen Baumaßnahmen dar und kommentiert sie. Ausgehend vom
Vestas: World’s most powerful wind turbine now operational Produkte Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie 28. Januar 2014 Werbung Vestas’ first V164-8.0 MW prototype wind turbine has successfully produced its first kWh of electricity, making it the worlds’ most powerful turbine in operation. “We have now completed the production, testing, and installation of the V164-8.0 MW as planned, thanks to the team’s intense effort during a time when Vestas has reduced its investments and lowered fixed costs. We now look forward to evaluating the turbine’s performance on site,” says Vestas’ Chief Technology Officer Anders Vedel. The turbine, installed at the Danish National Test Centre for Large Wind Turbines in Østerild, will be closely monitored in the coming months to further validate

Januar 2014 Werbung Natural Power achieve first UK greenfield onshore wind consent for BayWa r.e. Natural Power achieve first UK greenfield onshore wind consent for leading turn-key developer and operator BayWa r.e. (WK-intern) - Leading international renewable energy consultancy group Natural Power has achieved planning consent for BayWa r.e.’s first “greenfield” wind farm consent in the UK. The consented scheme comprises a single additional Enercon E 70 turbine that will bring the installed capacity of the under-construction Stroupster wind farm in Caithness to 29.9MW. Full Planning and Environmental advice was provided by Natural Power in relation to the extension scheme, with specific services including: Landscape and Visual
Coating Solutions for Wind Energy Offshore Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie Windparks Wirtschaft 22. Januar 2014 Werbung Bergisch Gladbach - Wind energy is deemed to be an especially eco-friendly and favorable energy source for power generation. Whether wind power plants work efficiently and economically strongly depend on continuous and reliable operation. To ensure this companies like Sulzer Metaplas offer surface solutions optimized for wind turbine components. (WK-intern) - Improved surfaces can be achieved by depositing thin coatings or by heat treatment of the steel components. Application areas are the manufacturing of parts mounted in wind power plants or the optimization of finished components. This article describes compatible coatings and treatments as well as established application areas. Wind Power For some of
Gamesa’s G114-2.0 MW prototype in Alaiz (Navarre, Spain) starts to generate energy Produkte Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie 11. Januar 2014 Werbung The prototype of Gamesa’s new G114-2.0 MW turbine, recently installed in Alaiz (Navarre, Spain), has started to generate power. Installation of the turbine finished in early December, triggering the start of the intensive process of validating and certifying the new turbine. The company expects to obtain type certification during the first quarter of 2014. (WK-intern) - Assembly of the prototype posed a genuine logistics challenge for Gamesa: the G114-2.0 MW’s blades –56 metres each one- were transferred in one piece and the components were manufactured in multiple locations in Spain: blades in As Somozas (Galicia), nacelle assembly in Ágreda (Soria),hub and gearbox
Turbine-mounted ZephIR Lidar at forefront of pioneering RES and Vestas study Produkte Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie 25. November 2013 Werbung ZephIR Lidar’s industry-leading, turbine-mounted Dual Mode (DM) system has been deployed by developers Renewable Energy Systems Ltd. (RES) in a first-of-its-kind commercial investigation into lidar-generated turbine performance measurements. This pioneering trial, which began in June 2013 and is expected to end in November 2013, uses a ZephIR DM installed on a Vestas V90 turbine. The ZephIR DM is uniquely capable of measuring upwind; wind speed, shear, turbulence and veer. (WK-intern) - The DM was chosen for its ability to provide absolute (traceable to IEC Standard 61400-12-1CD) and relative power curve assessments both hub-height and rotor-equivalent. In non-complex terrain, current industry guidelines require measuring
