Service work at wind farms requires well-planned logistical support, even if it does not involve the full assembly of the turbine. In the town of Taczalin, another investment for VSB Group was completed, aimed at creating temporary access and stable work surfaces necessary for the maintenance of the wind power plant.
The last sunny days of this year favored the implementation, but the very nature of the work required solutions that would ensure load-bearing capacity, safety, and ground protection. The natural ground in the area of the wind farm was not suitable for the movement of heavy service equipment or for the operation of auxiliary cranes.
Below is a video of the implementation:
Nature of the investment and the need for a temporary access
The investment in Taczalin involved maintenance work on an existing wind farm. Such activities require regular access to the turbine for both technical vehicles and heavy equipment. It was crucial to ensure temporary access to the wind farm to enable safe and efficient work without permanent interference with the terrain.
Using traditional solutions, such as aggregates, would entail additional costs, a long preparation time, and the need for later land reclamation. Therefore, the decision was made to rent road plates, which allow the quick creation of temporary roads and work areas precisely where they are needed.
Logistical challenges during maintenance work
The implementation of temporary access in Taczalin involved several significant logistical challenges:
-
the need to provide a stable surface for assembly cranes and service equipment
-
protection of the ground from rutting and damage
-
efficient transport and maneuvering of heavy elements
-
construction of temporary roads without using aggregates
-
quick assembly and disassembly of the infrastructure after work completion
In such conditions, rental road plates proved to be an optimal solution both technically and organizationally.
Aluminum Plates Alu Deck HD
In this implementation, aluminum plates Alu Deck HD played a key role, being used as temporary working surfaces for assembly cranes. Their construction allows for the transfer of very large loads while evenly distributing pressure on the ground.
The use of Alu Deck HD allowed for the safe operation of service equipment even in areas with limited ground load capacity. The modular nature of the plates enabled quick adaptation of the surface layout to the current needs of the work.
Wooden Road Plates Metrum
The implementation was complemented by wooden road plates Metrum, which served as a stable storage site for the wind power plant rotor. Storing such elements requires a level and secure surface to protect both the component and the ground.
Metrum plates proved to be a solid storage base, allowing for the temporary placement of heavy elements without the risk of damage. The entire implementation was carried out without using even a gram of aggregate, significantly reducing interference with the terrain.

Effects of the implementation in Taczalin
The use of rental road plates for maintenance work on the wind farm in Taczalin brought tangible benefits:
-
ensured safe and stable temporary access to the wind farm
-
enabled efficient service handling and crane operation
-
eliminated the need for aggregate
-
reduced the time required for work completion
-
limited the costs of restoring the land to its original state
The implementation confirmed that temporary roads made from road plates are an effective solution for servicing renewable energy investments.
Why rent road plates for wind farm maintenance work
Maintenance work on wind farms requires flexible and quick infrastructure solutions. Renting road plates allows for the rapid creation of functional temporary roads and work surfaces, without permanent interference with the ground and without generating additional costs.
This solution is particularly well-suited for cyclical maintenance work, where time, safety, and the ability to quickly dismantle infrastructure are crucial.
