Wow, zero carbon emission with magical concrete, magical steel and on and on

zero carbone emission ? it's a joke ? lol

Thank you for showing that under the rebar reinforced foundation the puddle of concrete it is built over is not much more than a thin layer of soil prep.

great video

Good video. Thank you

Interesting video, thanks for sharing. No piles? That surprised me.

Some many ecological experts in the world

Is this anchor bolt cage foundation or just concrete foundation? Thanks

A Friction foundation would probably use much less concrete and steel to achieve the required torque at maximum wind load plus headroom

The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination

It all sounds ‘So-good’ to me -- much like any political ‘too_good_to _be_true’. Typical of political Hocus_Pocus to me!!! By the find out the truth most of us will be dead and gone. They’ll just change the whole situation and still nothing anybody can do.

Great video, how many tons of concrete are needed to hold that thing down?

Looking at the I’d guess about 2000 ton of concrete and maybe 100 ton steel. Didn’t look like they compacted the backfill they used to cover it but if they did there’d be possibly another couple of thousand ton dirt on top of the concrete

@@jimmytwostones It takes 8 tonnes of coal, with 4 tonnes of iron ore and 1 tonne of limestone to make just 1 tonne of steel. And the Greenies want to stop coal mining to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. ????????? I think there is a whole heap of hypercriticism going on in government over the issues.

good video but grouting operation was cut

How many MW for this base?

That’s an insane amount of steel. Anyone know how many yards of concrete one of these foundations take?

that is correct. An amount of steel , concrete and everything moved, manufactured, and so on with diesel machines...all very renewable! . A windmill of 2MW is about 1600tm ( 1200 of concrete + 70 of steel for foundation + 350 the windmill)

I am intresting take can do it the work with your company civil structure

And how do we remove this little foundation?

Do you know many roads need to be constructed to enable the delivery & erection of just one wind turbine & what's the average life of a wind turbine & do they all get scrapped in an ecological way & are birds, humans & other creatures effected negatively by wind turbines?

Totally agree with you,, the amount of energy of material is ridiculous, it should be forbidden to install in mountains of special protection areas. 😢

Ive heard one windmill doesnot produce energy through whole lifetime which would equal his price to build it. So we have to donate this "green" energy. Whole green deal is such a fake

So lucky concrete is carbon neutral!!!! ?

earth carbon neutral when?

It's a complicated calculation. Here's a comment I've made on other videos: I have not yet seen an honest assessment of how much fossil fuel is consumed manufacturing everything related to the foundation. Rebar and concrete require huge amounts of fossil fuel to mine the raw materials, condition/prep the raw materials, make iron then steel then rebar and concrete. Add the steel and copper and composites that make up the wind turbine itself. And finally the entire construction project from site prep to assembly to interconnection. I want to know when a wind turbine has produced enough electricity to offset the fossil fuel burned to produce it. I've seen claims that the answer is never.

Can i get the foundation drawing?

These things will never break even with the energy needed to produce them and install them. Not even close to being “green”.

@@thetasworld For one turbine, 300 cubic yards of cement for the foundation. That's over 2 million pounds each, 40 truckloads of cement! Can you smell carbon foot print ? And the toxicity of the production of the électronics? The mining of the various métals (some ordinary, some bizarre) for both those électronics and the foundation. The severly toxic chemical used in the Labs where components are produced. White coveralls, gloves and booties and respirators for those working on these machines. This is about big business, not about ecology. Then, decommisioning à unit after its 20 year peak of production, and another 10 years for good measure and réputation, and you have masses of nothing reusable. Tons of fiberglass which is pretty much the same as asbestos suitable for the landfills (back to the earth ?) Électronics which required spécial treatment, and oh yeah, à 69 foot block of cement that will never, ever be moved anywhere. LMAO. Do you see how naïve we can be when we rally behind big business that's waving an ECO flag ?
