HALIADE-X


GE Renewable Energy has begun the operation of its Haliade-X turbine prototype optimised with a 13MW power output.

In the coming months the prototype will undergo a series of tests to perform different types of measurements and obtain its type certificate in the coming months.

The Haliade-X 13MW is an up-rated version of the prototype that has been successfully operating in Rotterdam since November 2019.
