Blade
• SGRE next-generation blade technology for larger rotor designs to deliver optimum weight and strength.
• Aerodynamic design
• Combination of airfoils in the blade design for optimal balance of AEP, loads distribution and noise.
• High-efficiency airfoil families implemented in SG 5.8-155 and SG 5.8-170 accumulate significant operating track record in previous
Siemens Gamesa platforms. Aerodynamic design risks eliminated through wind tunnel validation.
• DinoShells and Vortex Generators implemented at the root to improve aerodynamic performance.
• DinoTails at the blade outboard enable keeping noise emissions to a low value while operating the rotor at a faster speed.
• Material
• Glass and carbon fiber reinforced epoxy to reduce weight and rotor loads.

• DFIG generator and partial converter: electrical architecture that minimizes the electrical losses, while fulfilling the most stringent grid codes.
• Transformer is oil cooled and located next to tower to minimize vibrations and structural reinforcement of the nacelle rear-end.
• Cooling room placed on the rear part of the nacelle, allowing gearbox, transformer and converter to be cooled efficiently and ready to handle high
dust and high corrosion conditions.
• Generator and nacelle internals are air cooled by fresh filtered air through the nacelle front inlets.

• Flexibility by means of modularity in nacelle & hub to enable optimal distribution of weights, and thus the utilization
of more economical & widely available means of transport.
• Transport nacelle height set at 3.5 meters, to enable transportation by train and the avoidance of obstacles in the
route such as tunnels or signals.
• Blade chord of 4.5 meters and blade root of 3.4 meters, dimensioned to not exceed onshore transport limits.
Limited blade pre-bend of 2.6 meters.
Service
Remote operation and diagnosis - improved asset management through better data processing and more powerful
digital capabilities.
• State-of-the-art predictive maintenance based on vibration diagnostics – Turbine Condition Monitoring
(TCM), with improved fault detection hit-rate and earlier identification of potential defects versus previous
CMS systems.
• Model based maintenance – remote diagnostics enabled, including access to high resolution data, online
data and full set of remote control levers for efficient remote troubleshooting.
Health & Safety and technician ergonomics are cornerstones in the design of the Siemens Gamesa 5.X.
Cyber security by design, incorporating turbine control systems designed to be safeguarded with endpoint protection
and patching capabilities.
Product options
Broad portfolio of options to address project specific requirements, while enabling a standard turbine configuration
that is optimally designed for lowest possible LCoE.
