How tall are wind turbines made by General Electric?
The largest rotor for a GE offshore wind turbine is 113 meters in diameterThe tower should be about 100 metersSo the distance from the water to the top of a blade pointing straight up would be about 160 meters.
What is the minimum wind speed to turn the blades of a wind turbine?
Wind turbines are built to wind range specifications, so the answer varies. GE and Gamesa, to name two manufacturers, have introduced wind turbines that can start in lower winds, as low as 5 miles per hour. These wind turbines have lower top end ranges and generate less energy than wind turbines designed for higher wind ranges. Wind turbines typically cut in at 7-9 miles per hour. Some wind turbines are designed for very low wind conditions and will start in winds of 2-4 miles per hour. These are only useful in the very lowest of winds. Many industrial-scale wind turbines require power from the grid to start turning, typically around their face-plate generation capacity for a few minutes to overcome inertia of the blades. Compared to hours, days and often weeks of generation, this is a trivial energy requirement. It's further offset by wind farms starting up in increments. Wind farms feed energy into the very local grid. As the first wind turbine starts generating power, that power is available to other wind turbines. A wind farm will have the later starting wind turbines starting with the energy from the earlier wind turbines. Other answer: The latest models supposedly can start at about 5 miles per hour wind speed, but most start at around 8 miles per hour, though it is debatable whether a really useful amount of energy can be generated at these low speeds. The turbines also need a very large electrical 'kick-start' from the National Grid to get them into action, and a large amount of power is also required to brake them when the wind speed hits around 50-55 miles per hour, which is their upper safety limit.
What year did GE manufacture the first electric range?
1959
What was involved in GE's turbine recall?
In total, 22 GE turbines in the United States and overseas had to be shut down to be fixed; an additional 28 being shipped or installed required retrofitting with new components.
What year did GE manufacture the CA-2-B16 monitor top refrigerator?
1927-1936
What is value of GE 415 radio?
The value of GE 415 radio is about $35. However, this value may vary depending on the condition of the radio and the year of manufacture.?æ
Why you use si more than ge as semi conductor?
Si can be fabricated into ICs inexpensively, Ge cannot.Si maximum junction operating temperature is 150C, Ge is only 70C.Si is as cheap and plentiful as sand, Ge is more expensive and rarer.etc.
Who are the 3 companies that manufacture refrigerators?
GE: General Electric Carrier Frigidaire Electrolux LG Haier etc......
Which are some famous companies that manufacture ATMs?

Who sells wind generators of at least 1 megawatt?
Some of the largest manufacturers of wind generators are:General Electric (GE Wind)Gamesa (A Spanish Company with global operations)MitsubishiSiemens
What is General Electric Life Extension Services What do they do and where are they located?
I have a partial answer. LES is a branch of GE Energy. It does life extension services for electrical equipment. Such as turbines, generators, etc.
Who is the artist of the song used in the GE wind power commercials?
"Catch the Wind" is a song written and recorded by Scottish singer-song writer, Donovan.
