On October 16, 2024, a fire broke out in a V39 wind turbine produced by Vestas in Bjerringbro, Denmark. The fire caused significant damage to the turbine, with an estimated loss of $1.5 million. No injuries were reported, and the rest of Vestas’ fleet is operating normally. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, and Vestas is working with the customer to determine the exact cause once it is safe to access the turbine.

On October 16, 2024, a fire broke out in a V39 wind turbine manufactured by Vestas in Bjerringbro, located in western Denmark. The fire, which erupted in the early hours of the day, caused extensive damage to the turbine. Despite immediate efforts from local authorities, it was confirmed that the turbine could not be extinguished, and it was left to burn out naturally.
Vestas, a global leader in wind turbine manufacturing, reported that the fire resulted in an estimated damage of $1.5 million. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and the incident did not affect the rest of Vestas’ fleet, which is operating normally.
The cause of the fire is currently unknown, and local authorities have stated that the turbine was too unsafe to approach initially. Vestas has confirmed that they are working closely with the customer to investigate the cause once the turbine is deemed safe to inspect.
Although the fire was contained to the turbine itself, it raised concerns about the potential risks associated with wind energy infrastructure. Vestas has yet to release a timeline for the investigation but has stated they will cooperate fully with the authorities to determine the cause of the fire and assess the long-term effects.
The exact economic impact of the incident, including potential downstream costs and repairs, remains under review, but initial estimates suggest the damages could be significant.
Wind turbines are essential for renewable energy production, and while they are generally safe, incidents like these highlight the importance of proactive monitoring and early detection to mitigate risks. Planck Vision Systems provides advanced thermal imaging technology designed to prevent such incidents by detecting potential fire hazards early, enabling quick intervention and minimizing potential losses.
