Onshore / Offshore
 
6M – The Next Step Offshore
 
Rated power: 6.15 MW
Rotor diameter:
126 m
Hub heights:
100–117 m Onshore
85–95 m Offshore
Power control:
Pitch (electrical)
Rotor speed:
7,7–12,1 1/min (+15%)

The REpower 6M represents the consistent further development of the 5M technology. The turbine’s yield has increased by up to 15% with unchanged exterior dimensions; the 6M is thus currently the offshore wind turbine with the most power and the highest yield in the REpower Systems AG product portfolio.

Designed with the special offshore requirements in mind, the 6M guarantees a long service life and high availability - and all this at low operating costs. The 6M thus achieves the highest possible yields at minimal costs.

The REpower 6M also sets new standards in terms of reliability and ease of maintenance. The availability has increased significantly in comparison to conventional systems due to the redundant design of many components. In addition, the outstanding accessibility of the components allows maintenance work to be carried out more quickly as well as in a more practical and beneficial manner. Permanent monitoring, reliable corrosion protection, numerous safety measures for man and machine as well as experience garnered from over 2,000 installed REpower wind turbines guarantee high investment security.
5M
 
Rated power: 5 MW
Rotor diameter:
126,0 m
Hub heights:
100–120 m Onshore
90–100 m Offshore
Power control:
Pitch (electrical)
Rotor speed:
7,7–12,1 1/min (+15%)

The REpower 5M is representative of the successful transfer of our internationally renowned technology in a new dimension. The many innovative solutions in specific design detail demonstrate again our technical leadership. With a rated power of 5 megawatt and a rotor diameter of 126 metres, the 5M is one of the largest and most powerful wind turbines in the world. The 5M sets new standards for the economic viability of wind farms, especially in offshore installations.

Wind farms with turbines of this size achieve outputs similar to conventional power plants. This in turn puts high demands on the control and regulation system because optimised integration into the power grid is essential. In the 5M, REpower has once again shown how compatibility with the electricity grid can be optimised. The 5M can be integrated without difficulty into the grid, just as any other power plant of its size.

Due to its modular structure and logistical flexibility, the 5M is suitable for onshore and offshore installation. The offshore version is specifically designed to withstand the conditions of the high seas. This includes for example redundancy of key components to guarantee maximum availability, effective protection against corrosion and permanent monitoring.
Technology
REpower uses its technological expertise, its eye for detail, and its steady focus on key priorities to set the standard for cost-effective, reliable, and safe wind turbines: we do not want to reinvent the wheel with new solutions; instead, we are passionately committed to optimizing every last detail.

Teams of experts for every component of our products work with an extensive network of highly specialized service providers and suppliers to develop high-quality components that are then integrated into high-performance systems.

To enable us to continue offering reliable, first-class wind power technology in the future, we have adopted an ambitious development program designed to continually develop not only our products, but also our entire service offering.

The driving force behind all this is our proven technology: our 2 megawatt MM platform builds on the 1.5 megawatt MD platform which has been tried and tested in many installations over many years. The REpower 5M – currently the world's largest wind turbine – is also based on our reliable technological design.

Here you can switch to the menu item Service & Maintenance for further information.
Turnkey Expertise
In addition to our high-quality, state-of-the art wind turbines, we offer comprehensive expertise in planning and constructing turnkey wind farms. REpower is an experienced and reliable partner who assumes responsibility for the entire planning and installation of your wind farm, including all the necessary infrastructure and grid connection construction work. This includes, for example:

- Evaluating location potential and micrositing
- Planning and implementing grid connections
- Design and construction of electricity grid

- Infrastructure and foundation construction
- Turbine construction and commissioning
- Maintenance, service, and management

Therewith you get a complete power plant from a single source that offers an optimal solution in terms of the technology used and cost-effectiveness: reliably, rapidly, and cost-effectively.
Micrositing
The energy yield and the economic feasibility of wind energy projects depend largely on the choice of the optimal turbine, but also on a precise evaluation of the location potential and the wind farm configuration. A turbine that appears ideally suited at first glance is not always the most cost-effective solution in the long term.

Our extensive micrositing expertise allows us to guarantee two things: the choice of the most cost-effective turbine and the optimal wind farm configuration. This is vital for a profitable long-term investment in wind energy.
 
Permanent turbine monitoring (PMS)
Our aim is to ensure that our turbines are consistently available in the long term. All turbines are connected to our Permanent Monitoring System (PMS), which enables remote monitoring of all facilities from our service headquarters in Husum 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Any faults are automatically reported without delay so that we can inform the operator immediately and solve the problem as soon as possible. In addition, our turbines are actively checked every six hours. What is more, essential operational data such as performance, electricity output, availability, status lists, temperatures, etc. are recorded permanently in a database, thus allowing comprehensive fault analysis.

Advantages of the Permanent Monitoring System include:

- Remote facility monitoring around the clock (24 hours a day)
- Active checking of the turbine every 6 hours
- Emergency service available 24 hours a day
- Immediate fault reporting
- Online fault repair
- Documentation of standard data, temperature, and output

Unit Certification
REpower is first manufacturer with unlimited unit certification according to SDLWindV

In April 2010, REpower Systems AG became the first wind turbine manufacturer to obtain an unlimited unit certificate from a certification authority in conformance with the System Service Ordinance (SDLWindV). This verifies that the requirements according to SDLWindV will also be adhered to after June 30, 2011.

All variants of the MM series wind turbines therefore demonstrably fulfill the high network requirements in Germany.
Variants of the MM series (new systems) are now fully certified.
The double-fed system thus meets the high network requirements in Germany.
