The company, the turbine It is resistant to typhoons and said that it could withstand even strong winds of 79.8 m/s.
Huge wing pieces fell from the turbine
According to Recaharge News, As the turbine rotated, giant wing pieces broke off and fell to the ground. It is currently unknown why the wing fracture occurred.
Interestingly, the offshore turbine prototype took Asia by storm in September. had managed to survive super typhoon Yagi. While another wind farm located in the region where typhoon Yagi occurred was damaged, it was reported that MySE18.X-20MW did not encounter any problems.
The manufacturer made a statement
Mingyang Smart Energy made a statement about the accident, stating that the giant turbine was at the prototype stage and said it broke while being tested under extreme, abnormal conditions and stated that this problem provided them with valuable information while developing the new model.
The MySE18.X-20MW offshore turbine installed in Hainan on August 28 has power up to 20MW and Wing diameter of 260-292 meters Turbine with a modular and lightweight design. The turbine can meet the electricity needs of 96,000 people by producing 80 million kWh per year, with an average wind speed of 8.5 m/s.
Mingyang also 22 MW There is a larger turbine project with more power. This turbine 310 metre It will have diameter carbon fiber wings.
