Politics.be - Windturbine zorgt voor 359 MWh op 1 dag, of nieuw record.

Uiteraard op zee.

De uit één stuk zijn gegoten bladen kunnen nu worden gerecycled.

In juni ontving Siemens Gamesa een vaste order voor 60 van zijn SG 14-222 DD offshore windturbines, die zullen worden geïnstalleerd in het 882 megawatt (MW) Moray West offshore windpark in Schotland. Het wordt de eerste installatie van dit model.

A turbine prototype just broke a 24-hour wind power world record

Michelle Lewis - Oct. 10th 2022

Siemens Gamesa’s 14-222 DD offshore wind turbine prototype has, according to the Spanish-German wind giant today, set a world record for the most power output by a single wind turbine in a 24-hour period: 359 megawatt-hours.

This would be enough energy, according to the company, for a mid-sized electric vehicle – think a Tesla Model 3 – to drive around 1.12 million miles (1.8 million km).

Siemens Gamesa’s huge wind turbine achieved this power output milestone only 10 months after it produced its first electricity and delivered it to the grid at the test center in Østerild, Denmark.

The SG 14-222 DD is a 14 megawatt (MW) offshore wind turbine with a capacity of up to 15 MW with Power Boost.

It features a 222-meter (728 feet) diameter rotor, 108-meter-long (354-feet-long) B108 blades that are cast in a single piece and can now be recycled, and a swept area of 39,000 square meters (419,792 square feet).

The SG 14-222 DD can provide enough energy to power around 18,000 households annually.

Siemens Gamesa writes:

By increasing the rotor diameter to 222 meters with 108 meter-long blades, the SG 14-222 DD delivers more than 25% [annual energy production] AEP compared to its predecessor.

With every new generation of our offshore direct drive turbine technology – which uses fewer moving parts than geared turbines – component improvements have enabled greater performance while maintaining reliability. We are able to reduce time to market of the SG 14-222 DD thanks to standardized processes and a fully developed supply chain. Enabling high volume production at low risk. The serial production is planned for 2024.

In June, Siemens Gamesa was awarded a firm order for 60 of its SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbines, which will be installed at the 882-megawatt (MW) Moray West offshore wind farm in Scotland. It will be the first installation of this model.
