Vineyard Wind orders world’s most powerful turbines

Published October 13, 2021 2:16pm ET



Massachusetts-based wind power developer Vineyard Wind has placed an order for 62 General Electric Haliade-X turbines, moving the company a step closer to bringing online the nation’s first commercial-scale offshore wind installation.

GE on Monday announced the deal for the 13-MW offshore turbines, claimed to be the most powerful currently on the market, and said the order was enabled by Vineyard Wind securing a $2.3 billion loan last month to begin construction on the project.
