Mitsubishi: MWT95

Mitsubishi’s MWT-95 series is represented by three-blade, upwind, horizontal axis wind turbines with a rated capacity of 2.4-megawatts. MWT-95 is a variable speed wind turbine with a doubly fed asynchronous powertrain. The rotor on a MWT-95 turbine is designed to operate in an upwind configuration at 9.0 to 16.9 revolutions per minute (rpm). These series provides the option of a selectable power factor between 0.9 (inductive) and 0.95 (capacitive). For example, by configuring the machine to operate at a slightly capacitive power factor, the inverters can compensate for reactive power losses within the wind plant collection system, providing approximately unity power factor operation at the point of interconnection over a wide range of plant output.
