Organising production of composite blades for wind turbines with the use of glass fibre and pultruded profile made of carbon fibre (stiffening rib) by transferring technology of the world’s leading manufacturer of wind power plants, Vestas.

The main technology used in the blade production is vacuum infusion. Vacuum infusion is a process of manufacturing composite material where impregnation of the lined workpiece with resin occurs due to the vacuum created in an air-tight working space. The main materials used in the manufacture of Vestas blades are glass fibre fabrics, pultruded carbon profiles and polymer binder.

The blades produced as part of the project are up to 61.7 metres long, weighing 12.5 tonnes.

RUSNANO was founded in March 2011 as an open joint stock company through reorganization of state corporation Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies. RUSNANO’s mission is to develop the Russian nanotechnology industry through co-investment in nanotechnology projects with substantial economic potential or social benefit. The Government of the Russian Federation owns 100 percent of the shares in RUSNANO. Anatoly Chubais is CEO and chairman of the Executive Board of RUSNANO.

Work to establish nanotechnology infrastructure and training for nanotechnology specialists, formerly conducted by the Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies, has been entrusted to the Fund for Infrastructure and Educational Programs, a non-commercial fund also established through reorganization of the Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies.
