China’s Ming Yang Smart Energy has officially announced its new medium-speed, compact semi-direct drive product line, and the OceanX platform’s 50 MW ultra-large floating wind turbine, pushing the global single-unit capacity record to a new high.
The breakthrough capacity is made possible by the innovative Y-series platform architecture - a dual-rotor configuration in which two 25 MW powertrain modules are linked on a V-shaped tower structure to form a single machine.
Mounted on a floating foundation engineered for waters deeper than 40 meters, the turbine will offer proven typhoon resistance and opens an entirely new solution for tapping deep-sea wind resources.
As the global leader in semi-direct drive technology, Ming Yang also introduced its next-generation medium-speed compact drive (MCD) product family, ushering wind power into an age that is ‘more reliable, more efficient, more grid-friendly, more economical and more intelligent’.
According to the company, the highly integrated design will reduce part count, shorten nacelle length and lower major-component failure rates, cutting levelized cost of energy across the full life cycle. It will be backed by a physics-plus-AI smart wind-farm platform, and able to predict faults in advance, sense operations holographically and act before issues arise.
The MCD technology covers the complete
