Access in the wind farm: Rotor leaf breaks, the focus!

Werder, Deutschland - Today we get the message via an accident on a wind turbine in the Werder wind farm near Lübz, which took place on June 27, 2025. According to technologies such as drones and 3D scans are used to take a closer look at the damaged tower.

In addition, measures to reduce risk are taken into account as part of the risk assessment of wind turbines in the region. These include the determination of hazards and a risk analysis before the project start. This is to ensure that potential problems are recognized and minimized before they can have serious effects. A good plan is also the key to success.

The role of the security protocols

Security has top priority in the wind energy sector. Risk assessments include not only technical security measures, but also comprehensive emergency plans. This includes evacuation procedures and regular training for the staff so that all employees are well prepared for unexpected situations. This also includes the use of GPS-based location systems for the quick finding of locations in remote wind farms.

Another important point is regular maintenance and review of the systems. Numerous technologies are used here to ensure that everything runs smoothly and potential errors can be recognized at an early stage. The use of modern technologies such as machine learning and sensors contributes significantly to the safety and efficiency of the systems.

We are intently observed how the situation develops in Werder and what answers will bring the investigation of Nordex. This accident shows once again that security knows no limits and that constant further development in the wind energy sector is essential.
