Abstract: A wind turbine (10) supported by a plurality of cables (20). The wind turbine (10) includes a tower (12). An energy generating unit (14) is disposed on the tower (12) and is configured to produce electrical energy from wind (40). The tower (12) includes an upper section and a lower section. Each of the upper and lower sections includes an inwardly directed flange (82, 90) having a plurality of through-bores (84, 92, 96). An annular member (62, 120) has one or more ears (50, 204) that extend outwardly. Each ear (50, 204) is configured to be coupled to one of the plurality of cables (20). The annular member (62) includes a plurality of bores (68, 72, 104) that align with the through-bores (84, 92, 96) in the inwardly directed flanges (82, 90). The bores (68, 72) each includes a screw thread (100, 102). Threaded fasteners (94) are used to secure the annular member (62, 120) to the tower (12).

Abstract: Recombinant microorganisms, plants, and plant cells are disclosed that have been engineered to express novel recombinant genes encoding steviol biosynthetic enzymes and UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs). Such microorganisms, plants, or plant cells can produce steviol or steviol glycosides, e.g., rubusoside or Rebaudioside A, which can be used as natural sweeteners in food products and dietary supplements.

Abstract: A wind turbine (10) supported by a plurality of cables (20). The wind turbine (10) includes a tower (12) fixed at one end to a foundation (16) and including at least two tower sections (12a, 12b, 12c), including an upper section and a lower section. Each of the upper and lower sections includes an inwardly directed flange (82, 90) having a plurality of through-bores (84, 92). The inwardly directed flange (90) of the lower section further includes a plurality of second bores (104) spaced apart from the plurality of through-bores (92). An interface module (18, 120) is secured between the upper and lower section and includes a ring (62) from which one or more cars (50, 204) extend outwardly, each ear (50, 204) being configured to be coupled to one of the plurality of cables (20).

Abstract: A wind turbine nacelle configured for mounting on a wind turbine tower and housing a rotor-supporting assembly defining a rotation axis. The nacelle comprises a main unit arranged to be connected to a wind turbine tower and housing the rotor-supporting assembly. A crane is placed outside the main unit and connected directly to the main frame.

Abstract: A wind turbine blade comprising: a first blade portion having a shell that defines a suction side, a pressure side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge of the blade, the first blade portion further including a first blade portion end surface at one end of the first blade portion; a second blade portion having a shell that defines a suction side, a pressure side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge of the blade, the second blade portion further including a second blade portion end surface at one end of the second blade portion, wherein the first blade portion and the second blade portion are configured to be coupled together at the first and second blade portion end surfaces; and a connection joint for coupling the first and second blade portions together, wherein the connection joint includes: a first insert embedded in the first blade portion; a fitting integral with the first insert and projecting from the first blade portion end surface toward the second blade portion end surface; a second insert embedded

Abstract: A wind turbine nacelle configured for mounting on a wind turbine tower and for supporting a rotor-supporting assembly, the nacelle comprising a main unit, and at least two auxiliary units. To increase flexibility and improve assembly and maintenance procedures of the wind turbine, the auxiliary unit comprises at least two auxiliary units each accommodating at least one wind turbine component, e.g. a converter or a transformer. The auxiliary units are attached individually to the same wall of the main unit, e.g. to a side wall or a rear wall.
