Low wind turbine - 2 400 kW, Ø 117 m | N117
Nordex N117 (2.4 Megawatt)The N117/2400 has been specially developed for low-wind sites. Thanks to a rotor diameter of 117 meters and a rotor sweep of 10,715 square meters, the N117/2400 is the highest-yielding IEC 3 turbine in its class. In typical low-wind regions, it will achieve a capacity of over 3,500 full-load hours, thus exceeding other turbines in this category by 20 percent. This translates into a capacity factor of 40 percent. As a result, Nordex customers using the N117/2400 will be able to achieve high and steady electricity production in regions characterized by lighter winds. The acoustic power level is a maximum 105 decibels, thus allowing the turbine to be used closer to residential areas and ensuring an optimum turbine array in the wind farm. The N117/2400 has also been designed with construction height limits in mind. Thus, with a hub height of 91 meters on the standard tower, it remains below the critical threshold of 150 meters.
The turbine is the result of eleven years of systematic ongoing technical enhancements to the multi-megawatt platform, 26 years of wind power engineering and the experience gained from over 1,300 installed multi-megawatt wind power systems.
