One of CTZ's key differentiators is its use of mobile industrial plants, which can be set up within the wind farms themselves.


This model brings manufacturing closer to the assembly site and creates an operation that is directly linked to the needs of each project.

From manufacturing to assembly

1

Production of the segments

Production of the segments

Precast concrete segments are produced with quality control and material traceability, and testing can be conducted at the manufacturing facility itself.

2

Assembly of the structures

The segments are assembled and prestressed to form the structures that make up the tower.

3

Wind Turbine Installation

The technology developed by CTZ allows the wind turbine to be installed at a height equivalent to approximately half the tower's final height.

4

Hoisting the assembly

The internal tower and the wind turbine are raised using strand jacks to the structure's final connection point.

From Innovation to the Field:

The Everest Project

Developed in Ceará in partnership with Casa dos Ventos and TotalEnergies, the Everest Project marks a new milestone for CTZ Eolic Tower with a self-erecting precast concrete wind tower.


With a tower height of 166 meters and a total height of 257 meters, the prototype was designed for a 7.5 MW wind turbine—the largest in the Americas.
