A fresh breeze in renewables

ECO 5, the engineering consultant for efficient power applications, announced today a 2.3 m€ contract under which it will contribute to the design and engineering of world’s first superconductive generator for a commercial scale wind turbine. This so-called EcoSwing generator is intended to retrofit an existing permanent magnet generator in one of the most modern on-shore +3 MW wind turbines, owned and operated by Envision Energy.
