Senvion has completed the first installation of its new 2.3M130 wind turbine.
Installed in Gujarat, India, the turbine boasts a rotor diameter of 130 meters. With an installed capacity of 2.3 MW, it will provide electricity to over 1,500 Indian households, says Senvion.
The Senvion 2.3M130 complements other new turbines that have been installed recently, including the 4.2M118, 4.2M140 and 3.7M144. All the turbine variants are built on modular platforms that include the latest control technologies developed by Senvion.
“This is a milestone in our modular product portfolio, and we are proud of the achievement and commitment of our local team,” comments Yves Rannou, CEO of Senvion. “It further strengthens our market position in India and underlines our dedication to uncompromising quality.”
Amit Kansal, CEO and managing director of Senvion India, adds, “We are very pleased about the successful installation of the first Senvion 2.3M130. We see great potential for this turbine variant, especially in India and other growth markets, as it opens new installation sites for wind turbines due to its improved [levelized cost of energy].”
