First EWT 500kW direct drive wind turbine operational in the UK.

EWT commissioned its first Directwind 52-500kW direct drive wind turbine at the site near Camelford, North Cornwall. The installed turbine has a hub height of 40 meters and a rotor diameter of 52 meters. Owner of the turbine is Otter Power Limited. EWT has built the project in a record time and ahead of the scheduled date for completion.

With the favorable local wind conditions and supported by the UK feed-in tariff system it is very attractive for farmers and landowners to opt for a Directwind 500kW wind turbine.

In the meanwhile EWT has secured new contracts for its 500kW turbine and is anticipating growing demand the coming period.
