The wind tower market, including steel, concrete, and hybrid tower types, is projected to experience significant growth from 2023 to 2030. With applications in both offshore and onshore wind ...

Swedish company Modvion believes it has found a greener alternative – building turbine towers from wood.

The market knows this information well. Up to 20% of the total cost of a wind turbine goes to the tower, and using concrete towers helps keep the cost of a wind farm low.

The findings of this research provide a new approach for the measurement of natural frequencies and mode shapes of wind turbine towers, contributing to the safe design and operation of wind turbines.

But for towers above 150 meters, the industry primarily relies on hybrid towers combining a concrete base with steel upper sections, he says.

Enel Green Power South Africa has confirmed that the Nordex manufacturing facility being set up in Humansdorp, in the Eastern Cape, will produce concrete wind tower sections for the three new wind ...

German wind turbine manufacturer Nordex has unveiled a hybrid concrete and steel tower with a hub height of 200 metres, the highest hub height in the world to date.

Concrete is all around us, and we haven’t quite wrapped our heads around it. Understanding its history more clearly, the Skyscraper Museum’s new exhibition in Manhattan implies, just might ...
