Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Turbine Blade Delivery to Tower No 23. June the 7th 2008 was an historic day on Scout Moor as construction of the wind farm came to an end.

At 11:00 the first of the three blades were attached to Turbine No 23. Ground crew engineers are seen here preparing the first turbine blade for the lifting operation to attach it to the hub. Construction of the wind turbines began back in November 2007 at Turbine No 16. By June 2008 engineers had constructed 26 wind turbine towers and installed 78 turbine blades 450 metres above sea level on Scout Moor amid adverse weather conditions of thick fog,gale force winds,torrential rain,snow and ice during the winter months of 2008.
