From: Solutions for recycling emerging wind turbine blade waste in China are not yet effective

a accumulated wind turbine blade waste in kt, with a grey shaded area showing the range between the minimum and maximum scenario, the vertical dashed line indicates the current study year of 2018; annual wind turbine blade waste by waste types (MAN waste manufacturing waste, O&M waste operation & maintenance waste, EOL waste end of life waste) for b minimum scenario, c base scenario, and d maximum scenario. The numerical data for these figures are provided in Supplementary Data 1 (SS1-3).
