It was at 9 p.m. on Saturday that the wind turbine gave way and fell to the ground. The images taken by Norran show how the tower bent a few meters above the ground and then the turbine housing, tower and blades collapsed.
The Aldermyrberget wind farm It is a construction site and the power plants were scheduled to be put into operation in December, then under the auspices of the WPD Onshore company.
– This happened last night when there were no construction workers on site, so no one was injured, which is the most important thing, says the company’s CEO Maria Röske.
The collapsed tower was discovered by a person who was going to plow the site.
16 other power plants It is part of the park built by the Vestas company. Now it is Vestas who will carry out an investigation into the accident, according to Maria Röske. There has been no leak in connection with the collapse.
– I’m not going to speculate, but I think there must be some design error. But this is what you have to investigate, how could this happen. Wind turbines are nothing new, thousands have been built in Sweden, says Maria Röske, who has worked in the industry for 18 years, calling it a very unusual event.
– I never heard that it happened in Sweden.
The construction site is cordoned off and is not near any buildings, and Röske ensures that there is no danger to the public.
