Eemmeerdijk Wind Park

Eemmeerdijk Wind Park is a wind park consisting of 16 turbines situated at Zeewolde, Netherlands. It is one of the few wind parks using wind turbines with just two blades. It was built in 1998 and used 19 wind turbines manufactured by NedWind with a 60-metre tall tower and a 55-metre large rotor. However, turbines 6 and 9 have been decommissioned and dismantled after a nick was found in the pylon of turbine 6 in 2006.[1] And after lightning hit a blade from turbine 9, Turbine 9 was still there somewhere after 2009 seeing as google maps still shows the turbine https://www.google.com/maps/@52.2853861,5.3495734,3a,90y,73.9h,107.24t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sOgvwaZcb7TzoY1Og2vLagw!2e0!5s20090701T000000!7i13312!8i6656 . Turbine 7 has fallen down on January 4, 2023, due to the heavy winds.[2]
