Pfaffengrün wind turbine

Proven technology: High availability, 17 % additional yield

The Pfaffengrün wind turbine is located on the A72 motorway near the exit to the small town of Treuen, in the Vogtland region of Saxony. With a rotor diameter of around 117 metres, the N117 is one of the largest turbines in its performance class. The turbine type of the so-called efficiency class of the Gamma generation with a total output of 2.4 MW has been tested for many years. The N117/2400 is specially designed for inland locations and achieves high yields even at low wind speeds. Compared with its predecessor model, it delivers over 17 percent more yield. Nordex guarantees a high technical availability of 96 percent for at least 20 years.
