The next largest wind turbines and competitors to the V164 are the Siemens Wind Power SWT-8.0-154 and Adwen AD 8-180 offshore turbines with a rated capacity of 8 MW, [16] and the prototypes of the French 12—14 MW GE Haliade and the 16 MW MingYang. [17] The Enercon E-126 turbine is rated up to 7.58 MW, but only installed onshore. [18] [7]
This list also includes the most powerful onshore wind turbines, although they are relatively small compared to the largest offshore ones. As of June 2024, the most powerful wind turbine in operation is the world's first 18MW semi-direct drive offshore wind turbine, developed by Dongfang Electric Corporation. [1] In October 2024, Dongfang ...
Hywind Tampen is the world's first renewable energy power source for offshore oil and gas, and when commissioned was the world's largest floating offshore wind farm. At full capacity, Hywind Tampen will provide 35% of the electricity demand for Snorre and Gullfaks.
