  1. #SiemensGamesa has designed an #onshorewind #turbine just for the US market
    The company is casting blades at its factory in #Iowa and assembling nacelles – that’s the cover housing that contains all of generating components, including the generator, gearbox, drive train, and brake assembly – in #Kansas so that the SG.44164 qualifies for the #Biden administration’s #InflationReductionAct incentives.

  2. #SiemensGamesa’s SG 14-236 DD #offshorewind #turbine prototype – the company’s largest and most powerful wind turbine to date – is now ready to be powered up.
    It’s installed at the #Danish national test center for large #windturbines in Osterild with a output of 14MW and a rotor diameter of 236m.

  3. A ship taller than the Eiffel Tower will build the world’s largest offshore wind farm.

    The Voltaire “jack-up” ship – so called because it deploys its four 130-metre-long legs to stand on the sea floor – reaches 336 metres. Its main deck crane can lift wind turbine components weighing 3200 tonnes.

    It is on its way to the North Sea, where it will install huge new turbines at Dogger Bank, off the north-east coast of England.
