Repurposing Wind Turbine Blades

What is happening? Denmark is using decommissioned wind turbine blades as bike shelters, pedestrian bridges and guard rails working through an organization called, Re-Wind Network.

Why is this important? The lifespan of a wind turbine blade is 20 years. The blades are often made with components that are difficult to recycle.

How will this be important? It is estimated that by 2050 40 million tons of wind turbine equipment will need to be repurposed.
