Drumderg 32-megawatt Wind Farm, wind turbine generators _Scottish and Southern Energy_ Drumderg hill, Alyth, Perthshire, UK


The height of wind power plants in Europe during the 1990s was about 30 to 50 meters (100 to 165 feet). Gigantic wind turbines now have a hub height of 100 meters (330 feet) and more. The smaller tower segments can be carried on gooseneck or flatbed trailers. Large tower segments require modular trailers with extendable vessel decks. Some tower segments exceed 100 tonnes (220,000 lb).
