Wind Farm - Growing 150-ton plants in

Wind Farm - Growing 150-ton plants in
the sky 03/20/2003 04:22 PM
Wind power had a record year in 2002, with 6.8 gigawatts of new power taking the combined worldwide total to 31 gigawatts. Only five years ago, 75% of that capacity was not even built yet, and the generating capacity of individual wind power turbines was a measly 150 kilowatts. Today's standard wind turbines pump out 2-3 megawatts each, and yet more powerful and efficient prototypes are already being tested. Wind power is advancing quickly, that's clear. At a recent alternative energy conference in the US, Christopher Flavin, President of Worldwatch, stated that "Wind Power is breaking into the mainstream," and that it will be "the lowest-cost electricity within the next few years." Today, so-called Wind Farms are "sprouting up" all over the world. Recent innovations have even made it possible to install the first wind power in Antarctica, where the average windspeed is more than 25 mph, and can gust to 150mph. These "fortified" windmills are smaller and shorter than the 2-3 megawatt models, however. A full-sized windmill stands more than 50 meters high, and that makes them quite difficult to construct. I visited a "growing" wind farm last year, one that was about half-way finished, and was given a tour of the site by the construction manager. What follows is a short pictorial account of my site-tour, and a description of the processes involved in changing a fallow, rocky coastline into a productive wind farm.
