A nacelle of a wind turbine generator comprising: a base frame () that is separate from and which supports a main bearing housing (), in use, the base frame () being configured to connect with a lower portion of the main bearing housing (); and a nacelle structure () that is separate from and which is connected to the base frame () at a first connection, wherein that nacelle structure () extends away from the base frame () and defines at least in part an interior nacelle volume; characterised in that the nacelle structure () is connected to the main bearing housing () by way of a second connection at a point arranged above a plane of a rotor axis of the main bearing housing ().

Wind turbine nacelle structure and a method of assembling a wind turbine nacelle structure

The application relates to a liquid containment assembly () for a wind turbine (), comprising: a support () for supporting wind turbine equipment (); and a flexible container () suspended beneath the support (). The flexible container () is arranged such that it is moveable between a collapsed position, in which the liquid containment assembly () has a first depth (D), and an expanded position, in which the liquid containment assembly () has a second depth (D), the second depth being greater than the first depth.
