Mechanical characteristics of the G-11 HAWT

With its refined rotor and maintenance-friendly setup, the G-11 delivers smooth, reliable energy output for hybrid and distributed power systems.

Blades

Single piece glass fibre blade maximises strength and minimises connection interfaces, limiting points of potential failure.

Swept Area

Superior performance in moderate wind speeds due to the large swept area of 133 m² maximises power output.

Generator

Induction generator produces 3 phase, sinusoidal output without the need for power electronics, simplifying the control system and increasing the reliability of the system.

Anemometer

Wind speed sensor accurately tracks the behaviour of the wind in real time, in order to improve the turbine’s performance and safety.

Work Basket

Built-in work basket and ladder allow servicing and maintenance to be performed easily and safely, at a reduced cost, without the need for specialist lifting equipment.

Gearbox

Fixed ratio gearbox with a constant rotor speed ensures a low-level noise profile is maintained even during high wind speeds.

Controller & Monitoring

Remote monitoring allows service engineers to assess the status and health of the wind turbine, ensuring the system is operating at peak performance at all times.
