Horizontal-axis wind turbine V162-7.2 MW™

3-bladeonshorefree-standing tower

The V162-7.2 MW™ features flexible rating, designed to deliver optimised energy production even with greater temperature and climate variations. Designed with full value chain in mind, the V162-7.2 MW™ realises improved transportability of the nacelle unit, as well as the flexibility to service and upgrades over the turbine’s operational lifetime. The V162-7.2 MW™ improves Annual Energy Production by up to 7% through enhancements in powertrain and power conversion systems combined with flexible ratings of 6.5 MW, 6.8 MW and 7.2 MW, while maintaining the maximum Sound Power Level at 104.6dB(A) operating at 6.8 MW. Improved siteability in warm climates is enabled through the optional larger CoolerTop. Designed with full value chain in mind, the V162-7.2 MW™ realises improved transportability of the nacelle unit, as well as the flexibility to service and upgrades over the turbine’s operational lifetime. 6.5 MW Operational Mode 6.8 MW Operational Mode Oil Debris Monitoring System High Temperature Cooler Top Service Personnel Lift Low Temperature Operation to -30°C Vestas Ice Detection™ Vestas Anti-Icing System™ Vestas Shadow Flicker Control System Aviation Lights Aviation Markings on the Blades Fire Suppression System Vestas Bat Protection System Lightning Detection System 7.2 MW Connecting proven system designs from the 2 MW, 4 MW, and 9 MW platforms, the V162-7.2 MW™ features 6.5 MW, 6.8 MW and 7.2 MW three flexible ratings.
