German startup builds wind turbine blades from wood instead of fibreglass

 A pioneering startup in Germany is crafting wind turbine blades using laminated veneer lumber, presenting a sustainable solution to the prevalent fiberglass composite problem. The initial prototypes are currently being tested in the field, demonstrating their potential. This innovation seeks to tackle the increasing challenge of waste generated by conventional wind turbine blades, with plans for larger models aimed at commercial projects on the horizon. A pioneering startup in Germany is crafting wind turbine blades using laminated veneer lumber, presenting a sustainable solution to the prevalent fiberglass composite problem.
