What is a refurbished wind turbine solution? Like other precision engineered long-life mechanical products such as planes or ships, wind turbines that have been operating effectively for many years and regularly serviced can be inspected, refurbished, and re-installed. Refurbished wind turbines are ideal for projects where clients seek a solution with lower up-front costs and enhanced financial return with the reassurance of reliable technology and an extensive customer base. #ciculareconomy #decommissioningwindfarms #dismantlingwindfarms #retrofitwindturbine #windturbine #sustainability #repowering #usedwindturbine #repowering #ageingfleet #refurbishedturbines #windfarm #dismantling #windturbine #repoweringwindfarms #repoweringwindfarm #usedwindturbines #solar #sustainability #circulareconomy #repowering #Vestas #hydrogen #hybrid #repoweringsolutions #repowerlab #windturbines #reuse #secondlife #spareparts #cirularity #windenergy #renewableparts #windspareparts #decommissioningwindturbines #dismantlingwindturbines #decommissioning

Benefits of a full wind turbine refurbishment   Did you know that a complete wind turbine refurbishment can significantly extend the lifespan and increase the overall cost-effectiveness of your wind turbine?   Particularly interesting is the use of remanufactured wind turbines in distributed generation projects, energy communities, microgrids.   Main benefits of using refurbished wind turbines:   -         Increased reliability: Wind turbine refurbishments ensure every component is thoroughly checked and repaired, reducing the risk of unexpected failures. -         Cost-effective: By refurbishing existing wind turbines, you save on the costs of new equipment and enjoy prolonged use of your current assets. -         Circle economy: Refurbishments contribute to a more sustainable energy sector by maximizing the lifecycle and lifespan of existing wind turbines.   Overall, there are a bunch of additional benefits to a full wind turbine refurbishment.

💡 Innovation Alert! 💡 The Braced Tube Foundation, our new patented design for a wind turbine foundation, promises to be a game-changer for the wind power industry. The Braced Tube Foundation not only enhances performance but also cuts material requirements for a typical 4.5 MW turbine foundation by up to 40% on concrete and 50% on steel. Rigorous testing has confirmed that the new design translates to lower costs, a faster construction timeline, and a smaller environmental footprint, making it a game-changer for the industry. At RRC, we understand the importance of innovation in driving progress and sustainability in the renewable energy sector. #RRCcompanies #RenewableEnergy #Innovation #WindPower #Sustainability

Energiequelle GmbH Marks Milestone with Commissioning of 5.56 MW Bad Gandersheim Repowering Project In mid-February, Energiequelle GmbH began operations for a new E-160 wind turbine boasting a hub height of 166 meters and an output of 5.56 MW in Bad Gandersheim, Lower Saxony. Positioned at a towering height of 250 meters and situated adjacent to the A7 motorway, this state-of-the-art turbine commands a visible presence from a distance. The project’s groundwork commenced last February with the decommissioning of four outdated turbines operational since 2000. Through the installation of this new turbine, the repowering effort has achieved a remarkable efficiency surge of approximately 530%, catering to around 5,000 households with eco-friendly electricity.

The useful life of a wind farm always was a great question to ask when the farm is officially operating. the common idea or information that a typical wind farm will typically deliver 20 years to 25 years of use (take into consideration OPEX) , but lately I came across a lot of wind farms that are not exceptionally running for 30 years , and developers were not considering decommissioning of the plant YET , so it was interesting to know how they manage to do that (especially with old technologies which for ME , decommissioning was a great trade deal , powerful turbines and More MW/KM) . the paper below clarifies why they did that (obviously it's a money thing). but with more technical and economical explanations , it turns out that most of the project developers prefer the 30 -35 years range of operation due to (obviously money) LCOE , that offer the last 10/5 years of operations to be full profite for the developers.

Wind Farms Taubenkopf and Holzschlägermatte - Part 5: Enercon E-138 and E-160 Fully Installed The construction of the three new wind turbines at Taubenkopf and Holzschlägermatte in Freiburg is complete. After the Enercon E-138 EP3 was installed at Holzschlägermatte, the E-160 was erected at Taubenkopf as the final turbine. With the completion of the new turbines, it’s also time to bid farewell to the old E-66 at Rosskopf. In the meantime, the turbine has already been dismantled, and the tower is set to be demolished shortly.
