Thanks for sharing! Even more impressive must be the offshore turbines. The ones on land appear to have a practical limit due to road cranes of less than 2 MW. I believe the offshore ones go up to 4 MW.

One German company even makes them without gearbox, saving a lot of weight and bother.

Do they use carbon brushes? If so, they must be huge chunks of carbon!

Regards,

dom There is one thing money cannot buy: POVERTY!
