7 mw PM turbine
« on: May 26, 2013, 03:35:04 PM »
just noticed this monster that is going to be tested in scotland. says it is offshore. with blades of the best part of 80 metres long i suspect it could only be used off shore. impressive though. and its a PM design. don't think i will be buying i just yet though.
if i cant fix it i can fix it so it cant be fixed.

I live so far outside of the box, when I die they will stretch my carcass over the coffin

Here is an article on it.  It has not been assembled yet.  There is a photo of one of the blades at 83.5 Meters!
