In this design, the turbine's generator is directly coupled to the power grid, causing the generator speed to lock to the power line frequency and fix the rotational speed. A wind turbine is a revolving machine that converts the kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy. Nordex SE has unveiled the fourth generation of its multi-megawatt wind turbines. Grant Schmitz, a “I think you can basically find a pre-cast plant within 200 miles of anywhere in the U.S. This is another significant step forward in the growth of the offshore wind power industry and it represents the first concrete-composite floating platform wind turbine to be deployed in the world. As more and more wind turbines pop up across the state and country, researchers at Iowa State University are studying a new way to build the towers that hold them up into the sky. China's installed wind power 'design' capacity may have exceeded coal, but when you apply the normal capacity factors of 30% and 90% respectively, actual new coal power generation still exceeds their wind power by a large margin. So, any pre-cast plant could essentially create these components and be much closer to the wind farm sites than some of these steel manufacturers,” Schmitz says. Called "Generation Delta," the series includes new versions of the company's N117/3000 3.0 MW turbine and N100/3300 3.3 MW machine. €�Developing With such enormous untapped wind resources offered through offshore wind production the potential power that may be harnessed will quadruple. According to new statistics from the China Electricity Council, in 2012 China's wind energy production actually increased more than coal power production for the first time ever. While it is its present operation it will be used to gather data to help improve the design of future floating turbines. The turbine components responsible for these . The state-of-the-art facility has been specifically designed for full-scale testing of large nacelles. He was able to generate electricity and pump water using pure green energy. This mechanical energy is then converted into electricity that is sent to a power grid.
