The current center in Østerild, together with Ballum Enge, are the only two locations left as possible addresses for a future third national wind turbine test centre. Since 2012, Østerild has had a test centre, which, however, has so far not been approved for turbines of up to 450 metres. The picture is from 2020, when a 94-metre turbine blade is on its way to Østerild, where it must be hoisted 140 meters up onto a new 11MW turbine. Photo: Henning Bagger/Ritzau Scanpix
The citizens around Østerild near Thisted feel overlooked and not heard after their current test center for giant wind turbines in a significantly expanded version has been brought into play as an alternative to Ballum Enge. – Apparently nobody bothers to listen to us.
