Eco 100: Alstom's most powerful wind turbine

The largest and most powerful wind turbine
ever installed by Ecotècnia was erected on 27 March in
Barcelona. With its 100 metre rotor diameter, the new Eco 100
turbine has a power output of 3MW. Since its inception by a group
of engineers in 1981 in Barcelona (Spain), Ecotècnia, which
joined Alstom in October 2007, has installed over 1,500MW of
cumulated capacity in seven countries (Spain, France, Italy,
Portugal, India, Cuba and Japan). Ecotecnia has equipped or is
equipping over 72 wind farms; over 50 of which are located in
Spain. Among the largest are the wind farms of Las Loras (104MW),
Páramo de Poza (100 MW) and Montes de Cierzo (60MW) in
Spain, and Ennese in Italy (78 MW). Ecotècnia has also
developed a wind farm construction activity in Spain that
contributes to generating turbine sales and is a player in the
Spanish solar photovoltaic market with over 10MWp installed.
