ACCIONA plans to start manufacturing its new, 3-MW turbine at the West Branch facility next year. The dimensions of the 3-Mw, AW-3000 are impressive. Three rotor diameter options are available: 100, 109 and 116 meters. The turbine is supplied with a tower that provides a hub height of either 100 or 120 meters. Deliveries of the first machines are expected in the second half of 2010.
