From “L” to “E” – More power in 4 MW-plus segment

Published

on

ENERCON will launch the new wind energy converters in the 4 MW-plus segment on the market as E-147 EP5 and E-160 EP5.

A change to the product designation has been made in the next stage of ENERCON and Lagerwey’s affiliation. In future, all of the new WECs developed in partnership will enter the market as ENERCON WEC types with a uniform “E” series designation. The new E-147 and the new E-160 are taking the lead, and are also being given a power boost.

The E-147 EP5 for wind class IIA sites (IEC) has a nominal power of 5.0 MW. The nominal power of the E-160 EP5 for wind class IIIA sites is 4.6 MW. “This move is a way for us to accommodate the fast-paced developments in our relevant wind energy markets”, explains ENERCON Sales Director Stefan Lütkemeyer. “Our customers are calling for more powerful and more efficient wind turbines. By positioning the E-147 and the E-160 higher, we are offering them other attractive options in a tough competitive environment for their onshore wind projects around the world.”

The rest of the key data and the geometry of the new WEC types will remain largely unchanged. Both of the new developments are based on the EP5 platform, which, like the new EP3 platform, has a compact and cost-optimised design at its root.

The new EP5 WEC types will be a major topic of ENERCON’s presence at the WindEurope Conference & Exhibition in Bilbao (02 – 04 April 2019, Hall 1, Booth D42) and the Hannover Messe (01 – 05 April 2019, Hall 27, Booth L75).

Powering the Future: LEITWIND's Customizable Wind Turbines

LEITWIND, the only Italian manufacturer of megawatt-class wind turbines (ranging from 250 kW to 3,000 kW), stands out in the market for its ability to customize products, always aiming to find the most efficient and reliable solutions for its customers. This customer-focused approach has led to the erection of over 400 wind turbines worldwide, including 10 installations in Turkey

This success is driven by continuous investments in R&D and the support of LEITWIND’s parent company, High Technology Industries (HTI) Group—a global leader in the winter sports sector with brands like LEITNER, POMA, DEMACLENKO, and PRINOTH. The Group’s high standards of quality and reliability are recognized worldwide, with a global presence that includes 21 production sites, 108 branches, and 138 sales and service centers.

There are many factors that have made LEITWIND so competitive in the Turkish market: state-of- the-art technology, the offer of a complete all-inclusive package that includes, in addition to the standard supply of wind turbines, also the support during the authorization and construction procedures and the strong local presence: in fact, after LEITNER TURKEY, which opened in May 2012 to follow the ropeway industry, the subsidiary LEITWIND TURKEY opened its doors in Bursa.

With more than 20 years of expertise in megawatt-class wind turbines, LEITWIND differentiates itself from competitors through its “medium-sized” product portfolio (250 kW-3,000 kW), offering advantages such as easier transport, installation, and long-term management. Additionally, LEITWIND turbines are designed with a modular concept, allowing for adaptation to both customer needs and specific site requirements.

LEITWIND remains committed to continuous product optimization, with the LTW90 wind turbine (500-2,000 kW) standing as a prime example and the flagship model in LEITWIND’s portfolio. Boasting a large rotor surface, the LTW90 excels in energy production, even in low-wind areas, making it an ideal choice for single-installation projects. In 2023, the first LTW90 with a capacity of 1,500 kW was successfully installed in Lüleburgaz (Kırklareli).Looking ahead, a 2,000 kW LTW90 installation is planned for 2025, underscoring the global significance and competitive edge of the LTW90 model in the

Innovation and Sustainability: LEITWIND transforms the Turkish Wind Energy Market

Wind energy plays a key role in achieving our country’s renewable energy goals. LEITWIND, an Italian company specialized in the design, installation, and maintenance of megawatt-class wind turbines (ranging from 250 kW to 3,000 kW), thanks to its investments in R&D and its wide product porfolio, is able to offer the most suitable solution for every need, ensuring the highest quality and reliability.

A clear example of this commitment is the development of the configuration LTW90 with a nominal power of 1500 kW. With its large rotor diameter, this turbine ensures significant energy production even in low wind conditions, setting it apart from competitors in the same market segment.

In spring 2023, the first installation of this wind turbine in Turkey was successfully completed in the municipality of Lüleburgaz, located in the province of Kırklareli in the Marmara region. The average annual energy production of this wind turbine’ can meet the annual consumption of over 1,100 Turkish households. Furthermore, the wind turbine is equipped with D4.1 generator, the most advanced generator model, which offers significant benefits in electrical power control, efficient use of brakes , compliance with grid codes, and reduced noise emissions.

“There are several factors that have made LEITWIND so competitive in the Turkish market: cutting- edge technology, the approach to investments in line with European standards, and, last but not least, a strong local presence: in fact, after LEITNER TURKEY, inaugurated in May 2012 for the ropeway sector, LEITWIND’s Turkish subsidiary opened its doors in Bursa LEITWIND differentiates itself from its competitors in every single phase of the project , from the quickness of installation to the wide range of services offered, from the quality and reliability of the products to the quick return on investment and definitely for the know-how shared with the HTI Group, to which it belongs. This has allowed us to successfully install 10 LEITWIND wind turbines in Turkey and enables us to work with an increasing number of local investors,” stated Can Güven, Sales Manager Turkey.
