Modular Wind Energy has announced it has received GL (Germanischer Lloyd) Certification on its prototype 45-metre modular rotor blade.

The Modular Wind Energy MW45 blade consists of three 15-metre sections, which were manufactured at the company’s 170,000 square foot (nearly 16,000 m2) facility in Huntington Beach, CA, USA. The sections were shipped to the company’s test facility at Rialto, CA , assembled into a complete blade, and tested between February and June 2012. During each test, a representative of GL was present. The certification process involved rigorous static and fatigue testing proving a 20-year design life for the blade. Modular Wind Energy is currently in production on its first sets of customer blades, scheduled for installation in the USA later this year.
