Objective
In order to broaden the market for wind power, it is proposed to develop a novel wind turbine of about 350 kW rated power, applicable for sites that are difficult to access with cranes and heavy equipment (e.g mountainous sites, swampland and small islands). In order to meet site requirements the weights and dimensions of the individual wind turbine components should be within well-defined limits and transportation and erection should be feasible without heavy equipments. Besides high reliability and easy maintenance are major design drivers. Moreover, this 350 kW turbine should be able to operate in weak grids and/or within autonomous wind diesel systems at competitive costs. The project aims at designing, engineering and building and testing such wind turbine, and -besides exploring its market potential-at carrying out a full- scale demonstration of the benefits at two different sites, one in Ireland and one in Austria.
