The technology has optimized basics for different wind areas because of its huge working surface of the rotor diameter of 120 meters. The turbine generates a sustainable energy output with weak, middle and strong wind speeds.
The wind turbine was been developed by W2E a wind turbine licensee of Rostock. W2E erected the prototype with a hub height of 100 meters on a tubular tower in October 2013 in the north of Germany in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. The project is supported by Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety based on a decision of the Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany.
The commissioning has already been finished. From November this turbine will operate in production mode. The erection of the measurement equipment is expected to be finished in the following days and the measurement campaign will start subsequently.
The certification of the wind turbine technology according GL2010 is already in process. The licensees and project developers foresee a well market placement because of its profitableness.
