Investigation starts after wind turbine fire 

Credit:  2 Feb 2025 · bbc.com ~~

Fire crews said they were trying to establish the cause of a wind turbine fire at a farm.

The blaze broke out at about 10:00 GMT on Sunday at the Coldham Wind Farm in the Fens, Cambridgeshire.

The county’s fire and rescue service said it sent crews from nearby March, and from Stanground in Peterborough.

Crews left the scene by 13:00 and made inspections throughout the day to make sure the area remained safe.

In a Facebook post, the fire service said: “You may have seen there is a fire involving a wind turbine near Coldham.

“We have firefighters at the scene working hard to extinguish the fire.

“If you see the flames on your travels, please be assured that we are aware of the fire and have it under control.”

Coldham Wind Farm was constructed in 2005 and is a joint project between ScottishPower Renewables and the Co-operative Group.
