Periodic Reporting for period 1 - SE-NBW (Demonstration of a self-erection system for wind turbine towers)
Okres sprawozdawczy: 2015-10-01 do 2016-03-31
Large cranes are used for the installation of all types of towers, which result in significant cost overrun in the installation of towers higher than 120 m and limiting the installation of towers higher than 140 m, thus, paralyzing the development of the sector.
In this area, NABRAWIND has developed an effective, reliable and with a competitive cost system that enables assembling any type of wind turbine tower, nacelle included, without any limitation in height and with complete independence from auxiliary cranes, thanks to a new lifting concept system based on hydraulic lifting mechanism which allows the system to operate from the ground.
The overall objective of this project is the demonstration to """"stakeholders"""" of the functionality and reliability of the final configuration of the new self-erection system for the construction of wind towers in a real operational environment with the aim to confirm that the design specifications and requirements of the application are fulfilled.""

The feasibility study has been carried out in a working group formed by the consultancy and the company:
- By the consultancy BANTEC GROUP, two senior consultants.
- By the company, the members of the team have been: the General Manager, the Business Development Manager and the Technical Manager.
Five face-to-face meetings have been carried out with specific themes:
1. Feasibility study launch – October 2015
2. Market – November 2015
3. Business models and value proposal – January 2016
4. Forecasts and actuation plan – February 2016
5. Results validation – March 2016
