Assembly of a power plant on land:

Assembly of a power plant on land is similar to that of a sea-based power plant. The only difference is the use of hoisting winches which must be firmly fixed to the ground during their operation . This factor plus the need to provide a base for the rollers to roll on when the tower turns makes the application of a rotary tower and the assembly with the aid of hoisting winches not a suitable solution for large wind power plants.

However, it is very advantageous for wind power plants of small or medium power output. On land the speed of the wind increases quickly with gaining height; along with speed increase grows the production of electricity to the power of 3; therefore, it is profitable to build a high tower. The construction of a rotary tower of height 25 m or more seems the most advantageous option in case of our Land-based Wind Power Plant. Assembly of such power plant with the aid of a hoisting winch and an assembling system presents no problem. For example, in order to assemble a wind power plant of rated power 12 kW one needs a hand-operated hoisting winch of pulling power 10000 N. The power plant described above does not need practically any operation by man. Once every year or every two years the power plant should be laid on the ground in a horizontal position in order to carry out maintenance works and repairs.
