With the N117/3600, the Nordex Group offers an economical turbine for IEC-II locations. Thanks to the rotor sweep and high rated output, it obtains much higher yields. The turbine is available with hub heights of 84 to 141 meters and is thus ideal for complex locations. The maximum rated power can be adjusted (e.g. 3 MW) to also meet project-specific grid requirements. Nordex limits the sound power level of the N117/3600 to a maximum of 103.5 decibels.
