@@jeffv7726 They can never produce enough, to replace the energy it required to make them. Also, notice how many were not operating. That, severely cuts into the annual production numbers so often touted by "greenies".
The NASA-designed 3-blade wind turbines are extremely inefficient and, ultimately, a total waste. Another commenter, SLO Ride is correct in the net loss of energy of what they produce vs how much energy was expended to make and install them in the first place. Even worse is that these wind turbines USE POWER from the grid they are supposed to be supplying into! They USE power to keep the turbine spinning when the winds are too light and prevent aerodynamic stalling. In other words, to get one going again takes a whole lot of wind energy. There ARE superior wind turbine designs out there but, TPTB want this to fail. WHY? To keep the global fossil fuel racket intact, among other things.
I can understand if one has a fire and is no longer possible to repair but the designs need to be easier to repair and maintain if they are going to be viable in the long run.
The NASA-designed 3-blade wind turbine was a failure from the beginning. Pure imagery and political pressure is the ONLY reason these things are ubiquitous. There ARE superior designs but, optics and politics overruled them. That said, I guess what COULD be done for these is put the motor-generator head on the ground and have the rotor energy sent down via a long drive shaft. That way, if the genset catches fire, it can burn on its own and not harm the rest. It can also be equipped with fire suppression systems on the ground whereas such a system would add too much weight to the top of the mast in the usual wind turbine setup.
So, can you please tell me. What is more likely: That's thousand of engineers, scientists, regulatory bodies, companies, governments, design agencies, specialists and everyone inbetween are all wrong. Or that you are wrong?
This is just a cost effective way to dismantle them. After anything is knocked down explosives, the remains still have to be gone through, sorted, recycled, etc. The piles of debris aren’t just left there nor do they just go away.
Wow, that line of turbines falling was magnificent! I admire your work. Maybe I'd known about you long ago when i was in college, I'd have changed my career path.

@@MrUranium238 Certainly true after the demolitions, but just wondered about using a crane or helicopter to recover the generators or gearboxes before taking the rest down.

I don't think so. What you're hearing, is the reverberation of bangs in the tubular tower, much like throwing a rock inside a tunnel. If you went to one of those towers and struck it with a hammer, you would hear a similar sound.
Standard dismantling would be MUCH too time-consuming and far too expensive. OMG Very impressive 10 minutes. Is this how it is done with offshore power mills ? I hope not.
This is what BP executives consider pornography 🤣 Love this channel BTW, most satisfying demolition videos on TH-cam! That cable breaking / whipping sound is like what they used in the 2014 Godzilla movie, but better
Wind turbines have a design life of about 20 years. After which some major components might need to be replaced to keep them running. But most often financially it's more beneficial to build the newer, bigger, more efficient and more productive turbines on the market than to refurbish the old small ones. And so, the old ones get decommissioned. Which is some places involves disassembly into its component parts. And I guess in other places involves blowing them up.
Nuclear is more clean, it is also (by statistics ) the most safe Renewables are also not the easiest, the easiest would be coal or natural gas fired plants Having to rely on wind and sun or waves for that matter, is not easy. You have to plan ahead a lot for that and it requires a whole lot of extra infrastructure to store the energy For fossil fuels its, you put some in an oven : thats it, available 24/7. This does not apply to dams because water can freeze and the speed varies during the day ( and the same issue with freezing applies to nuclear as often they take coolant from nearby rivers ) renewables are also not cheaper in the long run. They require constant maintenance and the material costs are insane, not to mention they don't last anywhere near as long as other energy production means, apart from dams, which well . lets not talk about permanent downstream damage to the environment... According to the Anesco Ltd. you need roughly 80937m² for a 5 MW installation of solar panels The smallest nuclear plant in the US ( Ginna ) produces roughly 5 GWh per year at 85% usage and the entire area it covers ( inaccurately measured via google maps ) is < 627.000 m² This means to replace a SINGLE nuclear powerplant ( and thats the smallest I could find in the US ), you would need 32x the space and that doesn't even consider that we are putting steel and compound materials on every square meter of that area According to the Washington D.C. Nuclear Energy Institure, you need 360x the area for wind, and 72x the area for solar, to replace an *average* nuclear power plant. Not the smallest... All of this also as always doesn't consider the often permanent damages that are done to the area around the renewables. New studies find that wind turbines dry out the land surrounding them. Makes sense to me, who would have guessed? Taking the energy from the wind makes the wind travel less far. Same thing that already applies to hydro. If you slow down the water, the water moves more slowy, less throughput means less water means drier lands.. The inefficient space usage of solar fields causes animals to be displaced from the area as they cannot find food as efficiently, the dirt is often scratched away from installation or treated with herbecides, if it isn't entirely betonated... Wind turbines also killl almost a million bats each year Oh and turns out the production of them isn't even that clean, since well, they get produced in china and there are a bunch of articles about how they dump toxic chemicals into fields :) Reading into this for 5 freaking minutes will tell you just how bad renewables are, or even comparing areas where they have been installed with before and after images. Nuclear is the way to go. Everything else is just stupid.
@@dkxtro2562 Many thanks for all the details,now can you tell the UKs politician.

Oh they’re being replaced with bigger more efficient models now that they’ve reached their designed end-of-life. Don’t get your fossil fuel burning hopes up too high.
The broken blade threw the rotor out of balance, causing violent cyclic stress on the nacelle and tower. With that much shaking, it almost brought itself down! That turbine NEEDED to come down, it wouldn't be worth repairing. It was good that it was shut down, so they could drain off all the gear oil and hydraulic oil, to save an environmental incident, and possibly a fire.
I love wind turbines. I know they have some problems/issues, but destroying them isn't much better to my understanding. It's apparently very hard to dispose of the material that is used to make these, which can cause more environmental problems. Wouldn't it better to keep the ones already made up running and functioning while choosing not to make more?
Makes me imagine a dystopia movie where the survivors of nuclear war are gathered around the only remaining turbine and wars are fought over control of the power. Noone knows who built it or how it works, they just know it makes the invisible power. Rebels would destroy it at the end, undoing 200 years of industrial evolution and throwing humans back into the dark ages.
When I was a little girl I got into trouble for running round the garden, whacking the heads off flowers with a stick. Well, I'm a big girl now, so... has anybody got a really, really big stick I could borrow? 😁
Oh they’re getting replaced with likely larger and more efficient ones now that they’ve reached their designed end-of-life. Don’t get your polluting, fossil fuel burning hopes up too high.
those things don't poison the land with nuclear toxins for hundreds of thousands of years , they provide years of clean renewable energy and when they have to be replaced C.D.I. does it quick ,safe, and easy. the only thing thats an abomination is nuclear power and people that think its the answer .
The word “renewables” has puzzled me for a long time. After watching this video I discovered the true meaning of “renewables”. At the end of their short usable life of 20 years or so, the entire structure or product is renewed. Hence, the name re-new-able.
If there were a windfarm and a power plant of equal output compared, the power plant would be more efficient. Utility companies know this, but are given subsidies to build windmills.
Power generation is dynamic in that it scales with demand in real time and the difference between peaks and troughs in consumption these days can be very large and larger power plants that aren't quickly turned on or off or synced to the grid providing all of the power would mean they'd be producing lots of power that isn't needed and there is nothing efficient about that. Wind and solar farms can be turned on and off and synced to the grid in as little as a few minutes making them extremely efficient and useful for meeting excess power demands when larger NG, hydro and nuclear plants provide the base power - the absolute minimum power demand - and when usage peaks above that level wind and solar can be quickly activated to meet the spike in demand. With better battery systems which are being developed for wind and solar they would become far more efficient. Larger plants and wind/solar working together is the most efficient for the modern power grid when done right with the entire system in place, which is still years away from completion provided the anti-progress crowd doesn't slow things down even more.
At approximately £1M each to construct, plus maintenance costs, against the output, I would expect more than just 20 years usage out of them - they are not as environmentally friendly as we are led to believe….
To all wind turbine haters below: One fifth of the entire energy production of Finland is today produced by wind turbines. No matter what you say, they are going to be an ever-increasing part of the world energy production. Better get used to it.

They're demolished because wind turbines have a finite life span. The steel and whatever other materials can be salvaged will be recycled.

So, stick that into your hat and go back to your wind powered flat, enjoy a Bud Light, press your dress for the night, then go out and prance like a nonce and stop bothering the rest of us.
you are so wright toweri li . let all these fools try living next to a melted nuclear reactor core that can never be turned off and pukes out deadly toxic poison for millions of years for there kids to breath in and get cancer all over there bodies.
@@Sta2200 than why aren't you people against nuclear power plants because you cant MAKE ENERGY...pal...
One fifth isn't very much and that's with the wind blowing. Where does the four fifths come from?
Sad to see, that even newer wind turbines with cooler on top of the nacelles get demolitioned that way.
Appears no value in spare parts or rebuild at other places.
RIP Wind turbines😢
পাখা বিহিন উইন্ড টারবাইন বাংলাদেশের বাজারে কবে পাওয়া যাবে। লাখ লাখ লোক পাখা বিহিন উইন্ড টারবাইন স্হাপন করতে চায়।
Suggestion for 100,000: fly a fan out to press the button :D (If this is even legal lol)
By F4 tornado: I saw a Turnbine fell itself and broke 😢😢😢😢😢
The fake sound effects are completely unnecessary.
Really tho?
looks like the great wind turbine experiment has ended
I sincerely hope so.
Make way for new ones!
not an experiment, just out lived it design life and must be replaced.
@@wayneheigl5549 Replaced by a nuclear power plant.
@@nosaltadded2530 i dont get how you think mounds and mounds of smoke is better than this, also nuclear power plants are much more expensive and dangerous
I’m sad about that Turnbines
And the birds are all cheering!
