The recent tornado in Iowa directly impacted the wind farm near Greenfield, with the violent twister causing extensive damage. MidAmerican Energy Company reported the destruction of five turbines, each recording wind speeds surpassing 100 mph before succumbing to the storm. This unprecedented event has significantly affected their wind fleet, with wind farms operational since 2004. Though rare, incidents like these pose serious challenges even to robust infrastructure like wind turbines, designed to withstand high winds and severe weather conditions. Experts stress the importance of enhancing the structural integrity standards for such installations moving forward.
