Wind power technology is acquired
by GE to support implementation of taller towers. The tower technology has been optimized for more efficient installation and transportation. …
… “The space frame tower technology is a highly engineered and optimized structure that will handle the unique static and dynamic loads generated by wind turbines.
WTS also has been developing innovative ways to transport and install these taller wind turbine towers.
The space frame technology will use standard flatbed trucks.
Hi Jack system technology can eliminate the need for heavy lift cranes during installation.
These new technologies offer the ability to cost effectively extend the tower height, which in turn enables the turbine to produce more energy.” …
