Perseus Materials makes wind turbine blades up to 150 meters long using oversized molds and specialized equipment. The company aims to simplify construction of extremely large structures for renewable energy.
Our interests, of course, are away from the city center and in this office-cum-laboratory because this is the home of Perseus Materials and we have come to watch them cook.
The goal of Perseus is to simplify how we build enormous structures. One of the things that we really focus the tech development towards is wind turbine blades that can be up to 150 meters.
So something like a wind turbine, is that made with a mold?
Yeah, the mold is even bigger than the part itself. And so you need special factories, you need special equipment just to move it around.
