The GWP-82 (by Global Wind Power)

The turbine has a permanent magnet generator with excellent efficiency in partial and full load. Utilizing a full power converter, this turbine will delivers clean, grid-friendly power. Due to the variable speed principle, the turbine is the best choice when conditions get rough. An advanced electrical pitch system reduces the loads and guarantees maximum energy capture. The only moving part with a high load cycle is the main bearing into which Lagerwey has deliberately engineered a comfortable safety margin regarding wear and loads. The automatic lubrication system is closely monitored and is very accessible for maintenance. The GWP82-2000kW has a hollow main shaft for direct internal access to the hub. This makes the design light together with high stiffness to withstand the loads. All service can be done comfortably from the inside of the turbine. The generator is closed from outside influences and has an efficient passive cooling system that makes it withstand the most severe environments (dust, coastal operation etc.).
