3MW Platform

Built from the maturity of its predecessors, the 3 MW platform increases the capacity factor, annual energy
production (AEP) and application space. Component enhancements to the 2.5 MW models have resulted
in a substantial performance increase, enabling the use of a 130- and 137- meter rotor on the 3 MW
series and a nameplate ranging from 3.2–3.8 MW. These enhancements include gearbox and controls
improvements, and a new aerodynamic structure enabling a greater blade length (130–137 meter rotor).
Crafted for high reliability, GE’s 3 MW platform offers excellent availability that is comparable to the
2.5 MW series units operating in the field today.

Technical Description
GE’s 3 MW platform machines are three-blade, upwind, horizontal axis wind turbines with a rotor
diameter ranging from 130 to 137 meters. The turbine rotor and nacelle are mounted on top of a tubular
steel tower, with a range of hub height options that includes 85-, 110-, 131.4-, 134- and 164.5-meter
variants. The turbines use active yaw control to keep the blades pointed into the wind. The 3 MW
platform is engineered to operate at variable speeds and uses a doubly fed asynchronous generator
with a partial power converter system.

Enhanced Controls Technology

The 3 MW platform uses enhanced controls features:
• GE’s patented Advanced Loads Control reduces loads on turbine components by measuring stresses
and individually adjusting blade pitch.
• Controls were developed by GE Global Research to reduce extreme loads, including those near rated
wind speeds, to improve annual energy production (AEP).

Condition Monitoring System

GE’s Condition Monitoring System (CMS) and SCADA Anomaly Detection Services, a complementary
suite of advanced condition monitoring solutions, proactively detects impending drive train and
whole-turbine issues, enabling increased availability and decreased maintenance expenses. Built
upon half a century of power generation drivetrain and data anomaly monitoring experience, this
service solution is now standard on GE’s 3 MW platform.

DELTA4000
MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY.
MAXIMUM OUTPUT.

N149 / 4.0 - 4.5
02 | Delta4000

OPTIMISED YIELDS
Through flexible site adjustments

In developing the N149 / 4.0-4.5, there was one primary focus: the sus­
tainable reduction of electricity generation costs (COE). In comparison to
the N131 / 3600, the N149 / 4.0-4.5 achieves up to 28 per cent higher yields at
locations with light to moderate wind speeds. This is a significant improve-
ment that maximises the chances of success in auction processes.
 Delta4000 | 03

Highest efficiency
The rotor diameter has been enlarged by 18 metres, to 149 metres,
­com­pared to the largest rotor of the Delta Generation. This means the r­ otor
sweep has been increased by 30 per cent – for maximum efficiency in
areas with light to moderate wind speeds. While the ­aerodynamic shape
of the rotor blade has been adapted to meet the new requirements, the
­construction of the one-piece blade has remained essentially the same.

Flexible site adjustments

As the maximum output of the turbine varies between 4.0 and 4.5 mega-
watts, it is ideal for adapting to the grid operator’s individual requirements,
local wind conditions and noise restraints. This also means that it’s pos­
sible to optimise the overall yield of a wind farm by means of the different
maximum output of individual turbines, thus always exploiting the full
potential of each turbine position within each single wind farm. This is an
advantage, among other things, with large-scale projects that often come
with different wind conditions and complex topography.

Acoustically optimised operating modes

The N149 / 4.0-4.5 can master particularly demanding locations thanks to
different operating modes. Its sound power level ranges from 103.6 to
106.1 decibels, depending on the maximum output. When operated at
a reduced output level, the sound power reaches a maximum level of
96.5 decibels.

Advantages at a glance
+ 28% improved output
+ 30% enlarged rotor area
Site-specific performance modes available from 4.0 to 4.5 MW
103.6 dB(A) at a nominal power level of 4.0 MW
Service life of up to 25 years possible, depending on the site

PROVEN CONCEPTS
One step ahead through experience

With the Delta4000 product line, the Nordex Group relies on tried-and-­
tested series-production technology, based on experience of the Delta
­Generation. The Nordex Group currently has an installed capacity of
1 gigawatt of this platform in operation and more than 1 gigawatt is in
installa­tion. In the process, we remain faithful to established principles and
attach great importance to the reliability of all system components.

Electrical system maintained

Nordex had already equipped the first multi-megawatt system with a
­double-fed asynchronous generator and a partial converter in the year
2000. With the Delta4000 product line, we have remained faithful to this
proven and ­highly economical electrical system.

Reliable drivetrain concept

The drivetrain concept is based on a modular build system with three-
point suspension. We have successfully implemented this system from
the very outset. Together with our qualified suppliers, we are continuously
enhancing our drivetrain components. This not only ensures the required
performance, but also a high degree of availability.
 Delta4000 | 05

Over 1 GW in
worldwide installations
of the Delta platform

Grid compatibility guaranteed

Like its predecessor generation, the turbines of the Delta4000 product
line meet the grid requirements of international markets. In addition, they
­provide grid-stabilising system services.

Tapping into colder locations

The proven Nordex Cold Climate Package enables particularly cold
­locations to be developed. Turbines of the cold climate variant (CCV) are
operational in outside temperatures of down to minus 30 degrees Celsius
and can also be equipped with the proven rotor blade anti-icing system.
06 | Delta4000

N149 / 4.0 - 4.5
For light- and medium-wind locations

For the Delta4000 product line, we took over the Delta Generation’s
­fundamental design and transferred it to the 4 megawatt class, with the help of
­performance-enhancing concept adaptations. At the same time, we kept an
eye on consequently reducing electricity generation costs.

New dimensions
With a rotor sweep of 17,460 square metres and a nominal output of 4.0 to
4.5 megawatts, the N149 / 4.0-4.5 achieves output gains of up to 28 per cent. The
variable generator setting permits the individual customisation of each turbine
to the site conditions, thereby improving the overall output of the wind park.

Optimised power transfer

Unlike the Delta Generation, the converter and transformer are no longer
­located in the tower base, but in the nacelle. This minimises electrical losses
and simplifies installation efforts in the field.

More powerful
yaw system
The yaw concept has been
adapted for the increased nominal
output and the larger rotor. Two additional
drive systems compensate for the stronger loads
acting on the system.

Reduced service effort

The technical concept of the N149 / 4.0-4.5 minimises service
­requirements over its entire service life. We rigorously designed each
component for lower maintenance effort. In addition, the turbine
­provides a mobile crane solution for replacing components.
