The turbine is optimised for production on low wind sites, and increases annual energy production by up to 13.6% compared to the V100-1.8 MW on low wind sites.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201c<em>Vestas\u2019 product development strategy is to optimise our products and services to continue to lower the cost of energy for customers<\/em>,\u201d says CTO Anders Vedel. \u201c<em>The V110-2.0 MW is an extremely competitive product for maximising energy production at low wind speeds, and over 400 wind turbines sold demonstrate customers are responding positively to Vestas\u2019 strategy<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000;\">Chris Brown, President of Vestas\u2019 sales and service division in the United States and Canada adds, \u201c<em>The \u00a0turbine has been very well received by the market since being launched in 2013, particularly in the United States, with firm orders approaching 800 MW<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000;\">In order to continue to optimise the technology while maintaining high quality and reliability of the 2MW platform customers have come to expect, some innovative improvements have been made to several parts of the low wind turbine.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the larger rotor, the V110-2.0 MW (and the V100-2.0 MW- also launched in 2013) has a strengthened gearbox compared to previous 2 MW turbines, to withstand the increase force from the wind on the larger rotor. Furthermore new control features have enabled strengthening of the hub and other parts of the structure without increasing the overall weight.<\/p>\n<p>For further information visit:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/link\/redirector.php?url=http:\/\/www.vestas.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.vestas.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the west coast of Denmark Vestas has installed the first V110-2.0 MW prototype of the low wind turbine at a test site in H\u00f8vs\u00f8re The wind turbine &#8211;\u00a0optimised for production on [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15426,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[656,400,19,182],"class_list":["post-15417","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-renewable-energy","tag-low-wind-turbine","tag-renewable-energy-2","tag-wind-energy","tag-wind-turbine"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
