Strong Roots Behind Wind Turbines’ Beauty
Usually, when we see a beautiful plant, we don't think about its roots. Wind turbines are often called power plants. And, the same as other plants, we usually adore the size, height or beauty of them. But, it's essential to remember that this beauty wouldn't exist without strong 'roots’. Take the GE "Cypress" wind turbine foundation, for example—it's built with impressive numbers: 1095 cubic meters of concrete, piles of 19.5 meters depth and 154 tons of reinforced steel.
