During 1983-84 wind energy programs was commenced in India as 6th five yearly plans and in the last few years it has increased considerably. With the rapid wind energy industry growth, the question which has arises is how to deal with end-of-life turbines which has large amount of wind turbine blade waste. Wind turbine blades generally consist of reinforcement fibres, such as glass fibres or carbon fibres; a plastic polymer, such as polyester or epoxy; sandwich core materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), PET or balsa wood; and bonded joints, coating (polyurethane), and lightning conductors. Currently waste of wind turbine is disposed on landfill, incinerated or recycled. Recycling potential of the waste is very limited and other two options are polluting environment in its own manner. The paper here presents utilization of WTBW (Wind Turbine Blade Waste) in concrete as a replacement material of natural aggregate. WTBW is replaced with Natural Coarse Aggregate in different proportions like 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. In this paper detail discussion of compressive test and result is represented.
