List of Towers Related to WPP:
Tubular Steel / concrete Tower
Lattice Tower
Guyed Pole Tower
Hybrid Tower
1. Tubular steel tower: Generally used for a large wind turbine and normally manufactured in section of 30-40 meters in length. Complete tower is slightly conical in shape to provide better mechanical stability.
2. Lattice tower: It is assembled by different members of steel. All members are bolted or welded together to form complete tower of designed height. Cost is less than tubular tower. Asthetic look is only drawback.
3. Guyed pole Tower: This is normally used for small wind turbine plant. Single vertical pole supported by guy wired from different sides. Access to footing area is difficult.
4. Hybrid tower: It is used for small wind power plant. It is guyed type tower and thin, tall lattice type tower in the middle instead of single pole.
