Super wind turbine park upon a dike in the Zuiderzeepolder

Abstract

A wind turbine park has been planned near Urk, formerly an island in the Zuiderzee, and now a location in the IJsselmeerpolders. The project covers the erection of 25 wind turbines of 300 kW each. A short description of the foundations and construction is given. Turbines will be supplied by Hayen Maurice Zepperen in Belgium and the rotors by Stork, Venlo, Netherlands. Rotors will consist of three adjustable blades made of glass reinforced polyester. Yawing will be controlled automatically by a central windvane. There are no safety standards in The Netherlands yet for wind turbines with diameters larger than 20 m, but these turbines are expected to be safe. A number of factors which may produce difficulties are mentioned (noise, accidents, landscape pollution, danger for passing birds). There is also a real danger for damage caused by drifting ice. Finally, the economic and financial factors are discussed.
