GE Renewable Energy unveils Cypress 6.0-164 onshore wind turbine

GE Renewable Energy has introduced the 6.0-164 version of its Cypress onshore wind turbine platform. The 6.0-164 turbine will increase Annual Energy Production (AEP) by up to 11% over the 5.3-158 model.

 

The 6.0-164 features a proprietary two-piece blade that improves logistics and drives costs down. The model will be in the field by 2022. The 6.0-164 is the most recent model announced in the Cypress platform, which also includes 5.5-158, 5.3-158 and 4.8-158 turbines.
