What sort of power do these knock out?

[czechmate]

I was chatting with my daughter and we got to wondering what the output of these is?

if I had to guess, I suppose,with a stiff Breeze, I might hazard at 300 Kw?

I would have thought they would be be around 1500- 2000kw each. Judging by the size of trees would the diameter of blades be around 60-70 meters?

 

[Niteforce]

Ours are 2 Mega watt. About 125mts to tip of highest blade.

Yes they're 150 feet each blade , measured one when they were installing them near us .
30 years to get your investment back they reckon

You have a one track mind
My and my daughters interest was about physics.
I’m pretty impressed if they produce 2000 kw. 10 tractors

You're interested in Physics , I'm interested in Economics , the only thing I was any good at school .

Onshore seems to top out at around 3MW, offshore can manage 3 times that.

I grew up with Stella, she’s all gone now .

Plenty of space for some nuclear stations though.

They've got 56 already , france is baulked up with leccy , they should thank us

They owned a lot of our water as well but they sold that to the Chinese !

That must be output o we the year rather than peak? I do t see why they wouldn’t peak the same - just not so often

Certainly, finding spraying/spreading days is much easier here than leics - and when these things went up next door I thought they would never turn as (as you say it doesn’t seem windy here) but they are always wizzing round - must be more wind up there

I wish, bloody close to the J Deere dealer i use which is over 25 miles away

No, they can produce instantaneous power of 2MW for onshore and 9-ish for offshore.
