Vestas Wind Systems AS said Tuesday that it has introduced a new
wind turbine that offers enhanced performance in low- to
medium-wind conditions.
Based on its EnVentus turbine platform--a standardized platform
that enables the use of different wind-turbine variants--the new
V172-7.2 megawatt turbine delivers a 12% increase in annual energy
production compared to its V162-6.2 megawatt variant in low-wind
conditions, it said.
The new turbine delivers flexible power outputs and can be
applied to all conditions, with solutions for cold and hot
climates, it added.
"The V172-7.2 megawatt demonstrates how our modular product
development can enable customizable solutions, suited to any
environment," says Vestas Chief Technology Officer Anders
Nielsen.
Vestas shares rose 10% on the news to DKK220.35.
