The world's biggest wind turbine is currently the GE Haliade-X, which has a capacity of 13 megawatts (MW) and a rotor diameter of 220 meters. The turbine tower is 107 meters tall, and the blade length is 107 meters, giving the turbine a total height of 260 meters.
To put this in perspective, the Haliade-X is roughly the height of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
The Haliade-X is designed for offshore wind farms, where it can take advantage of strong and consistent winds over the open ocean. Its large size and capacity make it an attractive option for energy companies looking to scale up their renewable energy production and reduce their carbon footprint.
