UK - Turbine blades sail into port en route to Welsh hillside

Wind turbine blades were landed at the Port of Liverpool from Italy for swift transfer by road to the site of a Welsh mountain windfarm. The shipments by Vestas from Taranto in Italy were discharged from the ships Oostvoorne and Westvoorne by mobile quay crane at Liverpool's Berth S8 at Seaforth Dock. Landed with the 39 blades, each 27.5 metres in length, were 10 nacelles, the large power boxes which sit atop the turbine tower and at the axis of the propeller blades. Vestas-arranged haulage transported the blades and nacelles from the quayside in Liverpool to Mynydd Clogau, in Powys, mid-Wales.
