CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] None.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT

[0002] Not Applicable.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Wind towers have progressively grown higher and higher in order to reach wind that is more consistent. One hundred meter towers fulfill the height requirement but are so massive that construction is quite expensive and requires components that cannot be readily trucked to the site without difficulty. This invention relates to a wind turbine tower and more particularly to a wind turbine tower that may be assembled from a plurality of prestressed, precast concrete cast panels.
