| Abstract: | On March 6, 2009, a wind turbine collapsed at the Noble Altona Windpark in Altona, New York. Noble Environmental Power confirmed the collapse and announced that same day that it would be working with General Electric, which provided the turbine, to determine the cause of the incident. Preliminary investigation indicated that the turbine that collapsed, Turbine 59, may have had a wiring anomaly. No one was injured in the collapse and ensuing fire, but residents expressed serious concern over what went wrong with the turbine. | |||||||||||||||||
