See The World’s First Wooden Wind Turbine That Generates Enough Electricity To Power 1,000 Homes!

#shorts #Modvion #Most turbines #steel #Swedish tradition The world’s tallest wooden wind turbine has started turning near the town of Skara, not far from the city of Gothenburg. The turbine features a 105-meter (345-foot) tower constructed out of wood, according to the company behind the feat, Modvion. The tower’s 2-megawatt generator has started swirling and begun supplying electricity to the local electricity grid, providing power for approximately 400 homes. “It’s our secret recipe,” said David Olivegren, co-founder of Modvion. “Wood and glue is the perfect combination, we’ve known that for hundreds of years. And because using wood is lighter [than steel] you can build taller turbines with less material.” Standing alone in the Swedish countryside, the single and relatively small wooden wind tower won’t make a significant dent in the global climate crisis. Nevertheless, Modvion believes this proof-of-concept has a great amount of potential and has dreams of going even bolder with their plans in the future. By 2027, the company wants to create 100 wooden towers each year, perhaps on a much larger scale than present. “The potential height of a wooden tower is 1,500 meters [4,921 feet]. 150 [492 feet] seems like a good place to start,” Modvion says on its website.
