Abstract: A method of assembling a wind turbine tower by stacking a plurality of annular sections made of concrete above each other. The main connections are performed between two adjacent annular sections, for withstanding loads induced by a rotor. The auxiliary connections are performed between two adjacent annular sections, for withstanding loads induced by an earthquake and loads induced by the wind on the wind turbine in absence of the rotor, but not necessarily loads induced by the rotor. The method is characterized in that the auxiliary connections between two adjacent annular sections are performed prior to stacking the following annular section.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a wind turbine rotor blade spacer, a transportation and storage system for wind turbine rotor blades and a related method that prevent the vertical flexion of each one of the blades assemblies, minimizing the stresses and avoiding the contact between vertically and/or horizontally adjacent blades, and in consequence, blade damage. Also, the overall occupied surface by the system once assembled is minimised.
