Abstract
The invention relates to a photovoltaic module (16) comprising at least one recycled blade of a horizontal axis wind turbine or a section of a recycled blade of a horizontal-axis wind turbine which forms a beam (25), characterised by a plurality of cross-members (26) secured to the beam (25), each cross-member bearing photovoltaic panels (18).
Claims8
A photovoltaic module comprising at least one reused horizontal-axis wind turbine blade or reused horizontal-axis wind turbine blade section forming a beam, a plurality of cross-members secured to the beam by clamping structures that clamp on the wind turbine blade on an upper surface and on a lower surface thereof, each cross-member carrying photovoltaic panels, wherein the cross-members are independent of one another and photovoltaic panels carried by adjacent cross-members are separated by empty spaces, and the clamping structures that clamp on the wind turbine blade being placed above and below an internal reinforcement of the wind turbine blade.
A photovoltaic module comprising at least one reused horizontal-axis wind turbine blade or reused horizontal-axis wind turbine blade section forming a beam, a plurality of cross-members secured to the beam, each cross-member carrying photovoltaic panels, wherein the cross-members are independent of one another and photovoltaic panels carried by adjacent cross-members are separated by empty spaces dimensioned such that no mechanical force is transmitted to the panel when the wind turbine blade is deformed to a predefined maximum expected deformation.
