WIND PRODUCT SOLUTIONS ECO 100, ECO 110 & ECO 122 wind turbines Alstom offers ECO 100, a platform of large wind turbines that increases the electricity produced by each turbine and maximises electricity production from a site. Based on the use of ECO 100 which is the most proven 3 MW-range platform in the industry, Alstom’s POWEROF3™ concept optimises wind farms economics. 30 years of development have gone into the technology that has been proven in the highly successful Alstom’s onshore wind turbines and now taken a step further on this bigger and more powerful platform, the ECO 100. With rotors diameter from 100 metres up to 122 metres, the ECO 100 range of wind turbines offers high yield and leading efciency across all wind classes. ECO 100 turbine is suitable for high winds, ECO 110 for high and medium winds and ECO 122 for medium and low winds. For higher energy yield The ECO 100 platform is amongst the most proven multi-megawatt platforms in the market place with over 200 cumulative operating years (Dec 2013), and more than 2,000 MW installed or under construction worldwide. Recent upgrade of ECO 110 and ECO 122 turbines—the rst one being now suitable for classes I and II sites whereas the second one suits for classes II and III sites—allows 48% of net capacity factor. The ECO 122 leading efciency and high yield sets a new benchmark for medium and low wind sites. Its 122 metres rotor diameter and swept area of 11,700 m² improves land print, offering up to 25% increased wind farm yield on a given piece of land compared to today’s 1.5-2 MW turbines. Eventually, all of this means maximization of energy yield and reduced cost of wind power energy. The electricity generated by one wind turbine from ECO 100 range meets the needs of 2,000 households and avoids the production of 9,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. Net Capacity factor increased up to Ideal for areas with land constraints and/or noise sensitive 100 YEARS of experience in power generation 30 YEARS of experience in wind power solutions PROVEN TECHNOLOGY with more than 2,000 MW installed or under construction The turbines from Alstom’s ECO 100 platform are suitable for all types of wind sites. The higher yield and lower noise emissions make it the ideal choice in more populated areas with land and/or noise constraints, opening up new opportunities for wind farm development. Alstom’s ECO 100 platform presents the best combination of price and technical performance, allowing for greater efciency and competitiveness in our projects, which are key for us to maintain our leadership position in the increasingly competitive Brazilian wind market.

Robustness & reliability WITH ALSTOM PURE TORQUE® TECHNOLOGY All Alstom’s wind turbines feature the PURE TORQUE® concept, a unique and proven mechanical design that protects the drive train from deection loads to ensure higher reliability. The rotor is mounted on a fatigue-resistant cast iron hub that transmits the gravitational load and deection stresses via two sets of bearings to the tower. Meanwhile, the drive shaft elastically mounted on the front of the hub transfers pure torque (green arrows opposite) to the drive train free of the stresses and strains (red arrows opposite) that can...
