Acciona Windpower has agreed with Moventas on prototype as well as serial deliveries of their new 3MW wind gearbox.
The recently entered agreement concerns two Exceed prototype deliveries as well as serial production of the new Exceed gearbox, both of them expected to take place in 2015. In 2012, Acciona Windpower and Moventas agreed to together develop a new version of Acciona’s 3MW turbine, with the objective of reducing size and increasing torque density. Outcome of this is the Exceed gearbox series, a 3MW and up product platform. Exceed provides 20% more torque density with 10 % less size.
