Most powerful wind turbine in the world of Siemens Gamesa
Hispanic-Germanic Siemens Gamesa announced the world’s most powerful wind turbine, destroying China-which is a “chronic record holder” in this matter.
A conquered the summary place with regard to most powerful wind turbine in the world.
The Hispanic-Germanic engineering company, created in 20217, successfully installed a unit of 21,5 megawatts (MW) in the field of turbine tests of the Technical University of Denmark, in Østerild.
With a diameter of 276 metrosSiemens’s SG DD-276 model follows a series of turbines that claim the title of the world’s most powerful-a title that has been historically dominated by Chinese manufacturers.
As the record of the largest turbine in the world remembers was detained by the Chinese company Mingyang Smart Energy, who last year announced that he successfully installed a 20mw turbine, called MySE18.X-20MW.
The same magazine states that the Siemens Gamesa project was partially funded by the European Union, after the company received 30 million euros from the Political Union Innovation Fund – one of the largest world programs dedicated to new low -carbon technologies.
Siemens Gamesa was created through the merger of German’s wind subsidiary Siemens Energy, Siemens Wind Power, and Spanish Gamesa wind turbine manufacturer.
The turbine prototype has sufficient capacity to Supply 70,000 Denmark Houses annuallysimultaneously reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 55,454 tons of CO2 equivalent throughout the project.
China will answer
Although this is, for now, the most powerful turbine in the world, the China has already announced an even more powerful turbinebut it has not yet been installed.
In October, the Chinese state company Donfang Electric announced that it had completed the manufacture of a 26mw wind turbinestating that a single unit would be sufficient to feed 55,000 houses.
But the previous holder of the record, the Mingyang Smart Energyalso announced plans for its next generation of 22mw turbines.
