Vestas Wind Systems AS said Monday that it has introduced a new
wind turbine that offers superior wind park performance in medium-
to low-wind conditions.
The new V163-4.5 megawatt turbine delivers up to a 10% increase
in annual energy production compared to its V150-4.5 megawatt
variant depending on site-specific conditions, it said.
The new turbine is globally applicable, but is particularly
relevant for sites in the U.S., Latin America, South Africa and
parts of southern Europe, it added.
"The V163-4.5 megawatt turbine is optimised for medium to low
wind speeds, unlocking new markets across North America," said
Laura Beane, president of Vestas North America.
"Built off our proven 4 megwatt platform, this product utilises
an established supply chain and existing infrastructure, including
transportation and installation."
