World's tallest wooden wind turbine starts turning

27 December 2023

What is made from the same wood as a Christmas tree, held together by
glue and manufactured in a Swedish factory for assembly later?

If that calls to mind flat-pack furniture and meatballs, you're wrong.

If you answered "a wooden wind turbine", you could be a visionary.

According to Modvion, the Swedish start-up that has just built the
world's tallest wooden turbine tower, using wood for wind power is the
future.
....
....
It's 150m (492ft) to the tip of the highest blade and we are the first
journalists to be invited to have a look inside. The 2 megawatt
generator on top has just started supplying electricity to the Swedish
grid, providing power for about 400 homes
