Vineyard Wind, GE Vernova release action plan overview of blade removal operation
Recasts; adds details, company quote and background throughout
Aug 9 (Reuters) -Vineyard Wind and GE Vernova GEV.N on Friday released a plan outlining the steps to be followed after a turbine blade failure last month at the Vineyard Wind offshore project off the coast of Massachusetts, which left potentiallydangerous debris on beaches on the island of Nantucket.
Vineyard Wind, the first major U.S. offshore wind farm, was shut down by federal authorities after the turbine blade failure.
The plan outlines the steps to be followed to recover the remainder of the blade on the turbine. It has been developed in consultation the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement and the U.S. Coast Guard, the companies said in a statement.
GE Vernova said an analysis "has preliminarily determined that a manufacturing deviation is considered to be the primary root cause of the blade event, which should have been identified through the quality assurance process at the blade manufacturing facility."
The overview outlines Vineyard Wind’s plan to resume safe turbine installation and restart operations.
"No blades will be installed or used in operations until thoroughly inspected," the statement said.
Vineyard Wind , owned by Denmark's Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Avangrid AGR.N, is located 15 miles south of Nantucket.
Upon completion, Vineyard Wind is projected to produce enough electricity to power approximately 400,000 homes and businesses in Massachusetts.
