After 5 years of research, the team led by Tang Zhicheng has unveiled a solution that not only addresses the challenge of decommissioning these massive structures but also transforms them into valuable resources,
The article from JEC Composites discusses a new Chinese technology developed by the China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group (CECEP) that repurposes retired wind turbine blades into road pavement material. This innovative approach addresses the growing issue of waste from decommissioned wind turbines by grinding the blades into a fine powder, which is then mixed with asphalt to create a durable and eco-friendly road surface. This method not only reduces landfill waste but also lowers the carbon footprint associated with road construction. The technology has been tested in a pilot project in China, showing promising results in terms of road durability and environmental benefits, aligning with global sustainability goals by promoting the circular economy in the renewable energy sector.
