GE Vernova blade folds in half at Iberdrola wind farm, Recharge News reports

A GE Vernova (GEV) wind turbine blade bent in half at Iberdrola’s (IBDRY) Flyers Creek wind farm in Australia, Cosmo Sanderson of Recharge News reports. The wind farm, developed by Iberdrola, features 38 GE Vernova wind turbines, each with 3.8MW capacity. In a statement, Iberdrola Australia said the turbine blade initially suffered damage during a storm in late June and was removed from service, with an exclusion zone established. “A replacement blade has been ordered, and we are working with our operations and maintenance contractor to determine an appropriate return to service plan which will include the removal of the damaged blade.” GE Vernova told Recharge that “A recent weather event caused additional damage to a turbine blade that had already been taken out of service following a previous storm. We are working closely with our customer to replace the blade and safely return the turbine to operation.”
