PLEASE - stick to the LOCAL issue on this forum. PLEASE. As I have asked numerous times times in the past. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: The Sparrows Point, former Bethlehem Steel has been announced as supplier of the steel towers for OC. Yet I've seen no info on the supplier of blades and the turbines themselves for the OC project. And there's big concerns of quality slippage of one big supplier of those fiberglass blades. Failures soon after installation in US waters and offshore from the UK. Headline: Corners cut, data falsified at GE Vernova plant that manufactured failed turbine Click Here Then there's been excessive failures of the actual turbines manufactured by Siemons. Plus there's been financial weaknesses of several of the contractors heading these offshore wind projects. Projects have been delayed, & renegotiated with larger $$$ subsidies and costs of energy to be soaring higher. Kinda a mixed kettle of aging fish. |
