This week, Siemens Gamesa broke a brand-new record for wind generation. The record was specifically set by a Siemens SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbine prototype. In a 24-hour period, the turbine generated 359 megawatt-hours, which is “the most electricity one turbine has ever produced for this timeframe and enough energy to drive 1.8 million kilometers in a mid-sized electric car”!
