V112-3.45 MW®
The V112-3.45 MW® is designed for high wind sites and offers high grid compatibility.
V112-3.45 MW® at a glance
The V112-3.45 MW® IEC IA is a high-wind turbine and has a very high capacity factor. Similar to the other 4 MW turbines, the V112-3.45 MW® IEC IA turbine makes efficient use of its grid compatibility and is an optimal choice for sites with MW constraints.
On high wind-sites the V105-3.45 MW™, V112-3.45 MW® and V117-3.45 MW® are excellent turbine choices. A combination of the three variants can optimise your site layout and improve your production significantly. Due to the similar electrical properties, sound emissions and nacelle design, it is easy to mix and match the turbines from the 4 MW platform to maximise production on heavily constrained sites.
