Windmill out of Control in Denmark

Not the biggest size, but one of the most popular sizes for on land is 1.5 mw. General Electrics 1.5 megawatt turbine is the model that T Boone Pickens wants to install in Texas. Each of the three blades weigh 7 tons. The tower is 265 feet tall and weighs 135 tons. The Nacelle weighs 57 tons. Because of it's tremendous weight, it requires a large amount of concrete and rebar to anchor it.

thanks, that's really cool that some one actually answered a question with a good answer, thanks

How could it weigh that much and have a fiberglass pole supporting it all? The film does not support your claim on the this point.

he is talking S**t

I never thought those windmills were that heavy.

but i think it was a SHE... or specifically, BLONDE... :D

Ya - and then there was this bear that came out of nowhere. And I had to fight him off with my bear hands - I killed him with one hard upper-cut to the bears jaw, it broke his neck.
As I carried the child up a mountain (on which the child lived) a pterodactyl flew down and almost snatched us up with its giant talons, but I jumped into a cave and lived there for 3 1/2 years.
We had to stay there for 3 1/2 years because there was a temporary ice-age and we lived on all the bat poop that lined the cave walls and floor.
Then I brought the child back to the parents and they gave me 1 trillion dollars for saving the kid.

Then End.

hahhaha wish i could do the same if that situation happens to me

fiberglass, the masts are usually made of steel
