1418.Wind Power (4/5)
In the end, the winning bid was naturally the Pink Flower Language Marriage Design Institute, and after Wang Bo released the answer, it inevitably caused regrets from other companies. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The deposit of five million was immediately made first, and Adrian said that he would be based in Sunset Town in the future, and immediately mobilized his colleagues in Germany, and then began to prepare for the wedding.
Adrian needs to survey the main venue of the wedding, which is Sunset Castle, and Wang Bo said that the survey is no problem, but it is not enough to prepare now.
The castle was infinitely close to completion and could have been supplied to him before, but the renovation company felt that some parts were not perfect, so they reworked it with minor modifications.
Some of the faculty and staff of Lincoln University have moved to Sunsettown, and these people are now not as idle as the students, and they study everything.
As a result, some physics experts have discovered something useful for Sunsettown, and that is the use of wind energy.
Sunset is located at the beginning of the Southern Alps, and the town is guarded by the mountains, and the wind is not strong, but the wind on the mountains is very strong.
Every time he climbs the mountain, Wang Bo will be blown by the hair flying around, it is winter, the cold wind is even more severe, and the branches on the mountain that are blown all day long are flying like turbulent waves.
In this case, several professors of physics, wind, dynamics and energy formed an R&D group and then wrote a letter to Wang Bo, suggesting that he develop wind energy.
Wang Bo is not very thirsty for energy, and at the beginning of the construction of Sunset Town, together with the construction of Highway 8, it has already connected to Aocheng and built a mature power grid.
New Zealand has abundant energy and electricity, and Sunset Town has not experienced a shortage of electricity.
However, no one has too many such things as energy, and after Wang Bo accepted the proposal, he began to understand this matter.
New Zealand has been developing wind resources, and as the world pushes for renewable energy, the wind energy industry is at the forefront of development as a clean and truly green energy source.
Wind energy has many advantages, it is abundant, almost endless, widely distributed, clean, and it also mitigates the greenhouse effect.
However, as in any other industry, there are some problems in the development of wind energy.
The wind power industry is constantly evolving in technology, resulting in bigger and better upgrades, which means that many old wind farms need to be retired and retrofitted with newer equipment.
Unfortunately, the largest component of a wind turbine, the blade, this thing is completely non-recyclable.
Turbine blades are made of glass or carbon fiber composites. These materials are strong, lightweight, and have significant aerodynamic advantages, but they are almost impossible to recycle.
As a result, at the end of their life cycle, most of these blades are landfilled as landfill.
According to one estimate, there will be 50,000 tons of leaf waste by 2020, which will increase to more than 200,000 tons by 2034.
The situation is more dire because there is only one industrial company in New Zealand that recycles exhaust gas turbine blades, which crushes the blades and then mixes them with other waste to produce a chemical compound.
However, the mixing process is a chemical process, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
In other words, the company spends a lot of money on the turbine blades, and if it weren't for the government's financial support, they wouldn't be doing the job.
But Wang Bo looked at these discarded blades and had some ideas.
The blades of the windmills are very large, often more than ten meters long or even tens of meters long, and they are very tough, so Lao Wang feels that these things can be displayed as performance artworks.
With this idea in mind, he called his men together for a meeting to see if he could put the idea into action.
Listening to him in the conference room, everyone was confused.
Hani asked, "Chief, aren't you planning to build a windmill on the mountain?" Why do you think of tinkering with performance art again? ”
Wang Bodao: "To build a windmill, unless it is a national investment, the cost is too great and the benefit is too small." But this kind of performance art can achieve a win-win goal, and I bet the state will definitely be happy for someone to help with these discarded leaves. ”
Charlie frowned, "I remember I read a material about this project, and there was a school playground in the Netherlands that used this thing for waste. They utilize a few rotor blades to cut and then make things like children's tunnels, towers, bridges, hills, ramps, and slides. ”
Lao Wang said: "Yes, we need such a design!" ”
Conley searched the Internet for a while and said, "There's a square in Norway called Willemsplein, and the public seating in the square is made of this thing. ”
HE TURNED THE IPAD UPSIDE DOWN: "VOILA, NINE OF THE FULL ROTOR BLADES ARE PLACED AT DIFFERENT ANGLES TO CREATE AN ERGONOMIC COMMUNAL SEAT WITH A VARIETY OF SEATING OPTIONS." ”
Wang Bo said: "Very good, we can set up some seats like this in the square, right? ”
Looking at the huge blades, Bowen said, "Don't you feel a little lonely with our statue standing in the square?" I think it's a good idea to decorate the background wall with windmill blades. ”
There is a lot of information about windmill blades on the Internet, and the city of Almere has built a durable bus shelter made from scrapped turbine blades.
But Wang Bo doesn't understand why the New Zealand government doesn't use these good examples to deal with the leaves, but it doesn't matter, Sunset Town can take advantage of these things.
Elizabeth contacted the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Environment, and when she learned that they wanted a batch of discarded windmill blades, the Ministry of Energy responded enthusiastically and said that they would send them immediately.
The town didn't have to pay for it, the transportation fee was paid by the Ministry of Energy, and a total of twenty long blades were sent to Sunset Town by transport truck.
Wang Bo found a professional designer to be responsible for these blades, and they are still used for many purposes, such as welding guardrails on both sides, and putting the blades under the tree house, which can be used as a slide for the tree house.
The main function of the blade is to be placed on the square as a stool, so that with the shade canopy, it can solve the problem of many tourists sitting.
Not only are the windmill blades indestructible, but they also have the advantage of being extremely smooth, even if any dust falls, so that they can be wiped clean with a piece of paper, making it easy for tourists to sit down.
With the blades being converted into ergonomic chairs, July came, and the castle was finally completely completed, and after nearly two years, Wang Bo was finally able to live again.
In July, Wang Bo deliberately found a weekend time, hugged his daughter, and brought the family to visit the new castle.
On the way, Eva teased her daughter and said: "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, say Daddy ......"
Wang Bo was driving the car with a smile, and a crisp and vague voice sounded: "Well, well, I'm afraid." ”
