Gamesa Technology has unveiled its G114-2.5MW turbine. The new turbine, designed for use in Class II winds, inherits and enhances most of the technologies, components, and subsystems of Gamesa’s 2.0MW turbine platform.
The G114-2.5MW model promises 29 per cent more energy production than Gamesa’s G97-2.0MW turbine while lowering the cost of energy 10 per cent. The new turbine incorporates a new 2.5MW generator and converter system. The G114-2.5 MW features multiple tower heights --- 93 meters and 120 meters with other heights under development --- but also features a new 56-meter reinforced blade that is designed specifically for Class II sites.
