GE and Max Bögl Wiesner GmbH have announced the official start of installation of the first GE 2.5-120 wind turbine in Schnaittenbach, a town in Bavaria, Germany.
This is the first commercial use of the 2.5-120 turbine worldwide and it is expected to start operation in late October. The 2.5-120 is GE’s first “brilliant” wind turbine to utilise the power of the Industrial Internet. The Industrial Internet uses data analysis to connect machines and equip them with intelligence, helping to position them for enhanced performance.
