Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed herein is a structure for a wind turbine tower. A plurality of corner posts form the core of the tower with one or more cross braces spanning the distance between pairs of comer posts. Rotating support members mounted at the location of the comer posts are adapted for mounting accelerator platforms and enabling the accelerator platform to rotate. Horizontal-axis wind turbines can be mounted on opposite sides of the accelerator platform. In some towers, the vertical spacing between the rotating support member from one accelerator platform to an adjacent accelerator platform is an integer multiple of the vertical spacing between the intersection points between the cross braces and the comer posts. In other towers, the rotating support member locations on the comer posts are proximal to the intersection of the cross braces and the corner posts. L'invention concerne une structure pour mât éolien. Une pluralité de poteaux d'angle forment le coeur du mât avec au moins une entretoise s'étendant sur la distance séparant les paires de poteaux d'ange. Des éléments de support rotatifs montés à l'emplacement des poteaux d'angle sont conçus pour permettre le montage rotatif de plates-formes d'accélérateur. Des éoliennes à axe horizontal peuvent être montées sur des côtés opposés de la plate-forme d'accélérateur. Dans certains mâts, l'espacement vertical entre l'élément de support rotatif d'une plate-forme d'accélérateur à une plate-forme d'accélérateur adjacente est un entier multiple de l'espacement vertical entre les points d'intersection des entretoises et des poteaux d'angle. Dans d'autres mâts, les emplacements d'élément de support rotatif sur les poteaux d'angle sont proximaux à l'intersection des entretoises et des poteaux d'angle.
