Siemens has launched an extended portfolio of its onshore direct drive wind turbines. They launched three new turbine models for performance at low wind, medium wind, and noise sensitive sites.
All three machines share the same nacelle design. Different controller settings and rotor diameters allow the new turbines to adapt to specific wind and site conditions. The new low noise turbine – the SWT-3.3-130LN – and the new medium wind speed turbine – the SWT-3.6-130 - will go into serial production in early 2017. The low wind speed turbine - the SWT-3.15-142 - will follow in late 2017.
