WTG after dark (Click to view on Flickr)

After successfully installing the generator and nacelle atop the Portsmouth wind turbine generator this afternoon, construction was halted for darkness about 6pm this evening. Alex Pichs of AAER said that despite the fact that they planned to set up a battery of construction lights, there were still concerns about safety. The crane operators plan to be onsite tomorrow morning at first light to move the crane back 20 feet, and if there is a window, Pichs said, they will attempt to raise the hub and blade assembly.
