The certification, according to the internationally recognised standard IECRE OD501, covers the rotor-nacelle assembly.

With the type certification, TÜV NORD is verifying that the design and performance of the Minyang wind turbine meet international standards and guidelines.

This includes an evaluation of the technical documentation, the analysis of the structural integrity and the mechanical systems, and the inspection of the electrical systems. Additionally, the safety aspects of the turbine will be checked, said TÜV NORD.

At the same time, TÜV NORD will inspect the manufacturing to evaluate whether the production of the main components and the final assembly of the hub and nacelle of the offshore wind turbine are in line with the design requirements and are ready for series production.

The aim of the type certification is to ensure the reliability, safety, and efficiency of the wind turbine, according to TÜV NORD.

“With the new design, Mingyang is setting the benchmark on the international market for rated capacity and rotor diameter. We are looking forward to working with Mingyang on this ambitious project”, said Alexander Ohff, Executive Vice President of Renewables at TÜV NORD.

The turbine, which is developed for international markets, is characterised by its high output of 18.X MW and a rotor diameter of 260 metres.
