WIND TURBINE TOWER INSTALLATION APPARATUS AND METHOD
A wind turbine tower installation apparatus and methods of erecting a wind turbine tower are disclosed. The wind turbine tower installation apparatus is arranged for installing a tower has a plurality of longitudinally stackable sections. The apparatus has a frame comprising a guide for positioning the apparatus on an installed tower portion, a platform for supporting wind turbine components on the frame, and a mechanism for transversely positioning the supported wind turbine component in alignment with the tower. A lifting mechanism is provided for moving the apparatus longitudinally up and down the installed tower portion. The apparatus further has a yaw control thruster mounted to the frame and configured to provide a counter acting force to rotational wind loads in use.
