Siemens
gearless technology for a nearshore turnkey project: Westermeerwind in
Holland's IJsselmeer lake will feature 48 Siemens D3 platform wind
turbines. The Westermeerwind near shore wind farm is to be erected in
the IJsselmeer lake along the northern and western dike of the Dutch
municipality of Noordoostpolder. The 48 Siemens SWT-3.0-108 wind
turbines will be arranged in three rows in the shallow waters between
500 and 1100 meters from the dike. Each of these direct-drive wind
turbines will generate an output of three megawatts with 108-meter rotor
diameter, ensuring maximum efficiency. The number of assembled modules
making up each unit is only half that of conventional wind turbines.
This gearless design makes the wind turbines particularly robust,
reliable and maintenance-friendly.
