Why we’re turning wind turbine blades into luggage – BBC

A new type of wind turbine blade that can be recycled at the end of its operational life has been developed at the Siemens Gamesa factory in Hull.

The 354ft (108m) blades are made using a type of resin that can be broken down to allow materials to be reused when their life at sea is over.

Andy Sykes, plant director at Siemens Gamesa in Hull, said the new technology will allow valuable glass fibre and carbon fibre components to be used in the future. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62znp7e1p4o?fbclid=IwY2xjawNDHIFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHhcdSR8qHgGE9t-MRFbKXj3bM7VQlxgfNhEqESNAbyNgzwzlaN5WGGdRVxsC_aem_P8mVSOwgj_dicflbC_Aphw
