Orsted report Wednesday that a rotor and three blades separated from the nacelle of one of the offshore wind turbines at its 400 megawatt (MW) Anholt Offshore Wind Farm and fell into the sea. No injuries were reported from the accident. But as a precautionary measure, Orsted is requesting authories establish temporary ‘no-sail zones’ at other wind farms using the same turbines as the one that failed.
The Anholt Offshore Wind Farm was commissioned in 2013 and consists of 111 Siemens-Gamesa 3.6 MW wind turbines. Other farms using the turbines include West of Duddon Sands, Lincs, Gunfleet Sands, Burbo Bank and Walney 1 & 2, all in the UK, Borkum Riffgrund 1 in Germany, and Avedøre Holme in Denmark.

But that, combined with duct tape won’t?? What is the world coming to?
Stupid windmills. Big, ugly feckless things that blight the landscape and apparently the seascape too.
Lunacy to put these things everywhere.
We just had a report of eagles killed by the turbines.
Now, it’s sharks.
Falling apart at thee seams ,LOL
Have they tried Gorilla Glue?
It works on jheri curls.
Made in China, just like their cheap toys.

I’d be very careful about mentioning gorillas and jheri curls together.
You could easily end up on double-secret probation, or something?

Ah, ha ha, hahahahahahahahaha!
The tips of the those turbine blades are spinning at close to 200mph.
Absolutely the stupidest way to generate power imaginable.
We drove through the Columbia River Gorge a couple weeks ago. Used to be one of the most magnificent vistas in the USA. Now it’s covered in thousands of these infernal machines. And, when we drove through, NONE were turning.

Yes but this was all three and the rotor into the drink in one move!
My uncle established an equation that related stress cycles
to fatigue failure. (in the late 30’s)
