May 6, 2024 - Wind energy could get even greener by replacing steel with wood



The wind energy industry may be on the verge of becoming even more environmentally friendly. Even though wind turbines create almost zero pollution once they are up and spinning, the processes of constructing and deconstructing them can still be fairly carbon-intensive and produce a lot of waste. Some in the industry are now turning to wood as a potential solution to these challenges. Using wood instead of steel is more cost-effective, easier to dispose of and is responsible for fewer emissions.
