This project aims to demonstrate a lightweight, superconducting drive train for a 3.6 MW wind turbine, significantly reducing weight and costs. It focuses on advancing the technology readiness level and addressing industry hesitations regarding superconductivity in wind energy.
EcoSwing aims at world's first demonstration of a superconducting low-cost, lightweight drive train on a modern 3.6 MW wind turbine.EcoSwing is quantifiable:
The generator weight is reduced by 40% compared to commercial permanent magnet direct-drive generators (PMDD).
For the nacelle this means a very significant weight reduction of 25%.
Assuming series production, cost reduction for the generator can be 40% compared to PMDD.
Finally, reliance on rare earth metals is down by at least two orders…
