Abstract

The invention relates to the utilisation of a decommissioned power station or industrial chimney (1) made of concrete as a tower for a wind converter (2) with a high electrical output with a rotor with a substantially horizontally arranged rotor axis (20), on whose point rotor vanes (9) are located in a flying manner, after shortening by a degree determinable on the basis of static and dynamic conditions, and attachment of securing means, upon which the wind converter is rotated eccentrically to and with a degree of rotational freedom about the vertical axis of the chimney, into the respectively optimum wind direction. Alternatively, a steel base (6, 7, 12, 16) may be set on the thus shortened chimney in order to mount the wind converter, in such a way that the rotor vanes can pass the chimney at a predeterminable spacing.
