Vestas launches new V100 and V110 wind turbines

The wind turbine manufacturer Vestas has released two new variants of its 2MW wind turbine, the V100 and V110.

“Vestas is continuously optimising our product portfolio to meet evolving market requirements,” said Chief Technology Officer Anders Vedel. “The new 2 MW turbines respond to customer demands for enhanced output from proven technology.  Utilising the same core technology as the existing V100-2.0 MW, the new turbines will allow customers to exploit a wider range of lower wind sites.”

The V100 turbine will be available for medium wind speed (IEC 2B) sites and the V110 for low wind (IEC 3A) sites. Both turbines will be available in 50 and 60Hz versions. The V110 will be equipped with a 54 metre structural shell blade which requires significantly lower capital investment to manufacture and can be outsourced for third party production.

Mr Vedel added that in real terms customers will get an additional annual energy production of at least 13.6 percent with the V110-2.0MW compared to the V100-1.8MW, and an additional 12.4 percent annual energy production on the V100-2.0MW compared to the V90-1.8MW. The prototype for the V110-2.0 will be deployed in Denmark in the first quarter of 2014 and serial production of both the V100-2.0MW and the V110-2.0MW will begin in the second quarter 2014 and the fourth quarter 2014 respectively.
