Giant wind turbine erected in just 30 hours signifies major engineering feat: ‘This can save about 500,000 tons of standard coal’

Wind turbines are a feat of engineering. The massive structures are visually impressive and generate vast amounts of clean energy via a natural and pollution-free source.
