Posted on 05:51 by Unknown
Germany’s First Offshore Wind Farm Exceeds Expected Power Output

Stefan Nicola, April 26, 2013 (BloombergBusinessweek)

“Germany’s first offshore wind farm generated more power than expected because of steady winds last year, [according to] operators of the Alpha Ventus park…Alpha Ventus’s 12 turbines last year fed 267.8 gigawatt- hours of electricity into the German grid at a yield of 15.3 percent, more than anticipated, EON, Vattenfall Europe AG and EWE AG said…”

“The 5-megawatt machines, supplied by Areva SA and Suzlon Energy Ltd. (SUEL) unit REpower Systems SE, achieved 4,463 full load hours, matching the level in 2011…[though the] availability in 2013 of Alpha Ventus will decrease from last year’s 96.5 percent because of maintenance work, the operators said.”
