More than 25 years old are the two Enercon E40s in Windplan Blauw, Visvijverweg in Flevoland. Due technical problems these wind turbines had been standing still for sometime already. The costs were too high to repair for the period they were allowed to work as they had to be decommissioned later this year anyway.
This week the team of Business in Wind, the technicians of Koppejan and the crane drivers of BKV decommissioned these two 55m wind turbines. Now almost all components are on their way to Portugal as spare parts and the towers are recycled.
