AREVA Wind has unveiled the latest product extension of its M5000 product platform: the M5000-135. The M5000-135 enhances the M5000’s technology with a new 135m-rotor.
The design of the M5000 turbine, which is exclusively designed for offshore conditions, is a hybrid drive solution. With the 66m-long flexible offshore blades, 10m longer than the M5000-116, the M5000’s swept area will increase by 35% to 14,326m². Serial manufacturing of the M5000-135 is expected in the second half of 2014.
