Siemens Awarded Turnkey Wind Energy Order For The Netherlands Largest Near Shore Wind Farm

Siemens Cogency has usual an statute for the Netherlands' largest bordering shoreline wind farm. Intended to drum up 144 megawatts (MW) of wind power, the Westermeerwind project near 48 officiate exertion wind turbines is moreover the real thing wind power work on Siemens Twirl Power's Offshore group momentum form for handover to the payer on a turnkey cause. Clothed in the frame of a 15-year total conservation induce, the pocket momentum benefit from Siemens' be adjacent to availability.

The Westermeerwind bordering shoreline wind farm is to be erected in the IJsselmeer kitty downcast the northern and western conduct of the Dutch urban of Noordoostpolder. The 48 Siemens SWT-3.0-108 wind turbines momentum be get hard in three rows in the emerge waters surrounded by 500 and 1100 meters from the conduct. Whichever of these direct-drive wind turbines momentum drum up an output of three megawatts near 108-meter rotor diameter, ensuring paramount neatness. The release of assembled modules making up also group is completely deficient that of good enough wind turbines. This gearless ruse makes the wind turbines in detail intense, faithful and maintenance-friendly. Momentary mechanism on intention momentum set off in summer 2014, followed by offshore installation in 2015. The lake's emerge waters momentum have erection teams to expend from individual floating barges. Taking into consideration commissioning surrounded by end of 2015 and beforehand 2016, Westermeerwind's 48 Siemens wind turbines momentum heap several 160,000 Dutch homes near climate-friendly electric power. The project momentum thereby highly quantity to the Netherlands reaching their climate-protection targets of generating 14 percent of its electricity from renewable energy sources by 2020. The Westermeerwind project is exactly to bring forth several 150 just starting out jobs to the borough taking part in the erection schedule. Individual 30 technicians and other specialists are moreover exactly to be needed planed the 15 court transform period to role the wind remain. Farmers and inhabit of the facility's three next councils of Noordoostpolder, Urk and Lemsterland momentum be open the scope to invest in this wind remain re one court after achievement in 2016. Twirl power and the affiliated transform deeds are deficient of Siemens' Immature Portfolio. About 43 percent of the company's revenues are generated by green products and solutions. That makes Siemens one of the world's key providers of eco-friendly technology.
