Remember: All Rock is Not the Same
Wind turbine generators are a major investment in a wind energy project. Costs may be as high as US$ 1.5 million per turbine. It is, therefore, critical to protect that investment by conducting a thorough geotechnical investigation of each foundation pad upon which the wind turbine generators will be founded.
