Wind turbines are getting bigger every day, and their blades already exceed 100 meters in length, so their transportation becomes more difficult every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an example, the SG 14-222 DD turbine from Siemens Gamesa has 108 meter long blades, and has managed to generate a power of 359 MWh. in 24 hours, and 30 units of them would be capable of supplying electricity to a medium-sized city like Bilbao with close to a million inhabitants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And one of the problems that this type of turbines have is the length of their blades and the transportation from the factory to their installation site, since blades of more than 100 meters in length are very poorly transported by road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And like every time a \u201cproblem\u201d appears someone comes up with a solution, in this case someone has thought of designing an extra-large plane specialized in transporting wind turbine blades of up to 105 m. of length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company is called Radia and they have called the plane WindRunner. You can see some photos below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This plane is being designed, and if it flies in a few years it will be the longest in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its design data is huge:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
