Stable and full power! The world's largest wind turbine is the first to achieve full power operation

MySE18.X-20MW unit has the characteristics of "modularization, lightweight, high efficiency and high reliability". It adopts flexible power design, with a maximum power of 20MW, a wind rotor diameter of 260-292 meters, and can adapt to different market areas. The maximum wind sweeping area is 66,966 square meters, equivalent to the size of 9 football fields.

Based on the annual average wind speed of 8.5 meters per second, the unit can generate 80 million kWh of electricity throughout the year, which is equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 66,000 tons, which is approximately equal to the annual total electricity consumption of 96,000 residents. Since it was connected to the grid for power generation on September 26, the unit has generated more than 600,000 kWh of electricity.

At present, the unit is undergoing comprehensive type tests according to IEC standards, including mechanical load tests, power characteristics tests, safety and function tests, grid adaptability tests, and fault ride-through capability tests. In addition, Mingyang Smart combines advanced numerical simulation technology to simulate various load conditions that may be encountered during wind turbine operation, and through simulation comparison with actual test data, it realizes closed-loop verification from conceptual design to actual testing, which not only achieves design optimization and risk minimization, but also ensures the safety and reliability of the design.

As early as before the unit left the factory, Mingyang had conducted in-depth testing and durability evaluation on all key materials and components used in the unit, among which the wind rotor blades and transmission system underwent more than 800 hours of fatigue testing to simulate operation throughout the life cycle, ensuring the durability of the unit.

In the future, the unit will be equipped with more than 1,000 sensors for real-time online monitoring and conduct more than 150 performance tests. At the same time, Mingyang Smart has also established a measured database, using advanced prediction models, scientific design systems, precise typhoon resistance strategies and refined typhoon resistance management to verify the effectiveness of the intelligent control and protection system to ensure the stable operation of the wind turbine under various working conditions.

The MySE18.X-20MW unit is not only suitable for medium and high wind speed and typhoon areas in China, but can also be used in Europe and other international high wind speed areas. Since its release and development and production, the unit has been widely recognized by customers and has been pre-bid for batch projects.

The MySE18.X-20MW offshore unit has also been widely recognized. On October 17, Jianheng Certification Center issued a certification certificate for Mingyang Smart's MySE18.X MW unit; at the same time, TÜV-Nord and Mingyang Smart jointly signed a MySE18.X-260 certification contract. Prior to this, the unit had won the "2023 Global Best Offshore Unit Gold Award" from Windpower Monthly magazine.

From the application of the MySE3.0MW offshore model in Guangdong Province's first offshore wind power project in 2015, to the commissioning of the world's largest typhoon-resistant wind power platform MySE5.5-7.0MW in 2017, to the world's largest single-unit capacity semi-direct-drive typhoon-resistant offshore model MySE8-10MW in 2019, the MySE12MW unit in 2022, and the MySE16MW unit in 2023, to the full power operation of the MySE18.X-20MW unit, Ming Yang Smart has always been committed to improving the utilization rate of regional wind resources and promoting the parity development of wind power by scaling up offshore units.

For a long time, as an active promoter of innovative research and development and large-scale development of wind turbines, Ming Yang Smart has always been at the forefront of the industry, insisting on using large-scale development to push the wind power industry towards the direction of "high power generation, high reliability, and lower cost per kilowatt-hour", aiming to contribute wisdom and solutions to the development of global green energy.
