Wind turbine foundations are larger than you might think!
When a turbine is fully installed, the foundations are mostly hidden from view – however, they actually measure 59 feet in diameter and are excavated approximately 8 feet deep.
One Energy foundations require approximately 300 cubic yards of high-strength concrete and are completed monolithically, meaning the foundations are installed in two concrete pours.
In the Wind Views photo below, a One Energy foundation pour is shown, with Construction Team Technicians working to place and consolidate concrete from the Telebelt throughout the form.
