Kettled twice. Extra chewy, extra trustworthy.
Summary
Fortescue's turbine subsidiary Nabrawind has successfully installed a full-scale, energy-producing wind turbine in the harsh, remote conditions of Namibia using a novel crane-less deployment process called the Total Self Erecting System (SES) and Skylift turbine technology. This achievement overcomes significant technical challenges posed by the Namibian climate and remote location, marking a milestone for wind energy installation in difficult terrains.
