The major offshore wind farms built off the coast of the Netherlands are: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy — The latest in a series of companies trying to tackle issues that have proven to be challenges for the wind energy sector.

In a statement on Thursday, Swedish energy company Vattenfall said that some of the wind turbines at the 1.5GW Hollandse Kust Zuid facility will use Siemens Gamesa’s Recycable Blades. According to Vattenfall, these blades use a “resin type that dissolves in cold, weakly acidic solutions.”

It explained that it allows the resin to be separated from other components in the blade (carbon fiber, wood, fiberglass, metal, plastic) “without significantly affecting their properties”. Then recycle the components and Used again.

Vattenfall is one of the companies looking to recycle and reuse wind turbine blades. This aims to realize a “circular economy” that minimizes waste and reuses and reuses products.

Spanish energy company in early June Iberdrola He said he has set up a joint venture with FCC Ambito, which plans to recycle components used in renewable energy equipment. Includes wind turbine blades. FCC Ambito is a subsidiary of FCC Servicios MedioAmbiente.

In a statement at the time, Iberdrola said the company, known as EnergyLOOP, would develop a blade recycling facility in Navarre, northern Spain.

“The original purpose was to recover the blade components of wind turbines (mainly glass and carbon fiber and resin) and reuse them in areas such as energy, aerospace, automotive, textiles, chemistry and construction,” the company said. I am.
