Lattice tower assembly for a wind turbine

A lattice tower assembly for a wind turbine, the lattice tower assembly comprising:

• a plurality of structural members connected together to define an open lattice tower, the structural members comprising a plurality of supports, a plurality of inner cross-support members, and a plurality of outer cross-support members, the inner and outer cross-support members being connected between the supports so as to define one or more openings, wherein each of the inner cross-support members overlaps one of the outer cross-support members;
• and,
• a lattice tower covering comprising one or more panel elements, each of the panel elements sandwiched between overlapping inner and outer cross-support members,
• wherein the panel elements are configured to cover at least a portion of one or more of the openings, and wherein the lattice tower covering comprises a surface area defined by the plurality of supports and the one or more panel elements.
