Nabrawind has finished assessing the design and manufacturing of its latest tower range, the Nabralift 3.0, and has completed the initial prototype. UL Solutions has issued the Component Certificate for this new tower family.
The Nabralift 3.0 series includes six different configurations, tailored to heights from 100 meters to 200 meters, suitable for wind turbines with capacities over 6MW. The assembly of the first Nabralift 3.0 tower was done in late 2023 in Le Portel, France, in collaboration with the French company Innovent and integrated with the Vensys 3.8-126 turbine.
Nabralift is a self-lifting tower technology for wind turbines, featuring a three-column structure beneath the top of a tubular tower, equipped with a Self-Erecting System (SES) for easy installation of the wind turbine without large cranes. The new 3.0 family incorporates improvements from previous projects, resulting in weight reduction, better logistics, more efficient assembly, and support for turbine loads over 6MW with rotors exceeding 180 meters. All towers in the 3.0 tower family share the same transition piece and vary in the number of modules in the lower structure, from 0 to 5.
