2. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

   Offshore wind turbines are built up to 8 MW today and have a blade length up to 80 meters (260 ft). Designs with 10 to 12 MW were in preparation in 2018, [45] and a "15 MW+" prototype with three 118-metre (387 ft) blades is planned to be constructed in 2022. [needs update] [46] The average hub height of horizontal axis wind turbines is 90 ...

3. Unconventional wind turbines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_wind_turbines

   Counter-rotating wind turbines Light pole wind turbine. Unconventional wind turbines are those that differ significantly from the most common types in use.. As of 2024, the most common type of wind turbine is the three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the turbine rotor is at the front of the nacelle and facing the wind upstream of its supporting turbine tower.

4. Vestas V90-2MW - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestas_V90-2MW

   The Vestas V90-2MW is a three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine designed and manufactured by Vestas [citation needed] with versions for wind classes IIA and IIIA. [1] The V90-2MW has a tubular steel tower between 80 metres (260 ft) and 125 metres (410 ft) height.

5. Gamma 60 wind turbine - Wikipedia

   The Gamma 60 wind turbine, a 1.5 MW two-bladed upwind horizontal axis wind turbine, was installed by Wind Energy Systems Taranto S.p.A. (WEST) at Alta Nurra, Sardinia, Italy in April 1992. [1]

6. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

   The world's tallest vertical-axis wind turbine, in Cap-Chat, Quebec Vortexis schematic Vertical axis wind turbine offshore. A vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator ...

7. Wind power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power

   Almost all large wind turbines have the same design — a horizontal axis wind turbine having an upwind rotor with 3 blades, attached to a nacelle on top of a tall tubular tower. In a wind farm, individual turbines are interconnected with a medium voltage (often 34.5 kV) power collection system [ 25 ] and communications network.
