A wind driven power plant which enables a housing or gondola (12), containing the turbine-generator set (52; 46) and mounted, in use, at the top of a tower (10), to be lowered down the tower (10) to the ground for maintenance and/or repair purposes. The turbine (52) and generator (46) are mounted on the same side of the gondola (12) outboard of the tower (10) and an opening in the gondola in alignment with the tower (10) enables the gondola (12) to be lowered down the tower. The turbine (52) is mounted on a stub shaft and the generator (46) is of a short length, large diameter multi-pole type. Hydraulic climbing jacks (16) disposed on a sleeve (14) connected to the gondola (12) are used to raise and lower the gondola (12). |
