Martin Chaumet, Innovation Manager at Sprin-D (Federal Agency for Breakthrough Innovations) and Managing Director of beventum GmbH, stands on the construction site of the high-altitude wind turbine in Schipkau and looks up at the structure.
The wind tower was originally scheduled to reach its hub height of 300 meters and its total height of 365 meters today. Due to wind conditions, this goal has been delayed·yet even with its current hub height of 250 meters, the high-altitude wind tower has already set a world height record for structures of its kind.
