• SG 10.0-193 DD offshore wind turbine features 10 MW capacity and 193-meter diameter rotor
• SG 10.0-193 DD offers up to 30% more annual energy production (AEP) than its predecessor, the SG 8.0-167 DD
• Siemens Gamesa’s proven direct drive technology reduces time-to-market; 10 MW machine will be market-ready in 2022 following the expected prototype erection in 2019
• An offshore wind park with 20 of these turbines would cover the annual electricity consumption of a city the size of Liverpool
Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE), the world’s leader in the offshore industry, today launched the SG 10.0-193 DD, the company’s first 10+ MW offshore wind turbine. Based on the experience of its previous generations, the newest wind turbine in the SGRE offshore product portfolio builds on proven technology for maximum energy yield at all wind speeds. It offers the same reliability while improving profitability and reducing risk for customers.
“The new SG 10.0-193 DD combines experiences and knowledge from five generations of proven direct drive technology in one 10 MW turbine. A showcase of strong performance, swift time-to-market, and low risk in the offshore wind energy market,” says Markus Tacke, CEO of SGRE.
