The Jade wind farm is a wind farm near Wilhelmshaven in Lower Saxony . It was set up in 1989 as a test field for wind turbines in the northern district of Sengwarden . The wind farm is approx. 5 km from the inner jade . It has become known as the location of various unusual types of wind turbines such as the Aeolus II and Enercon E-112 as well as the single-wing MBB Monopteros M50.

technology

The Jade wind farm currently consists of 18 wind turbines, which were mainly built for test and measurement purposes.

Original condition

The first wind turbines built in the Jade wind farm included three MBB Monopteros M50 turbines with a single-blade rotor and a nominal output of 640 kW each. The rotor diameter was 56 m with a tower height of 60 m. In 2001 these systems were replaced by the two Enercon E-66s. The Aeolus II, a two-bladed wind turbine with a nominal output of 3 MW, a rotor diameter of 80 m and a tower height of 92 m, was in operation from October 1993 to the end of 2007. Your location is now taken by the Enercon E-70.

Other wind turbines in the Jade wind farm, which have since been dismantled, were one each of the HSW 30 (30 kW), Südwind N 1230 (30 kW), Wind World W3700 (500 kW), Nordwind NW 44-600 (600 kW) and AN Bonus 1300/62 (1.3 MW), GE Wind Energy TW 1.5s (1.5 MW), Nordex N62 (1.3 MW), Vestas V66 (1.65 MW), Vestas V47 (660 kW), Vestas V80 (2 MW).

history

MBB single-wing aircraft and former information center

On June 16, 1987, the foundation stone for the Jade wind farm's operating building was laid, after the project planning had already started in May 1986. The first wind turbines were finally put into operation on November 2, 1989. These were three single-wing aircraft manufactured by Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB). These were operated by Jade Windenergie GmbH , a subsidiary of GEW Wilhelmshaven GmbH . The wind farm also had an information center (now unused).

In 1990, with the support of the State of Lower Saxony, the German Wind Energy Institute (DEWI) was founded in Wilhelmshaven. The DEWI was originally intended as a research facility to support the developing wind energy industry and has since used the Jade wind farm as a test field for wind turbines.

The largest and most powerful wind turbine in the world at the time, the Aeolus II, emerged from a joint venture between MBB and the Swedish Kvaerner AB . It was put into operation in October 1993 and was, on the one hand, the further development of the Aeolus I and, on the other hand, the sister system of the Näsudden II , both built on the Swedish Baltic Sea island of Gotland . The operator of the two-wing Aeolus II was PreussenElektra , while DEWI carried out a measurement program on the system. A 130 m high wind measurement mast erected next to the system was also used for this purpose .

A commercial further development of the Aeolus II to the Aeolus III as a mass-produced large wind turbine, which should be competitive with the systems in the performance class from 500 to 600 kW that were already established at that time, was planned. However, this did not happen. It was only a decade later that industrially produced wind turbines reached the nominal output of the Aeolus II (3 MW) in a process of gradual further development and increased output. Aeolus II remained in operation until the end of 2007. On February 13, 2008, the facility was blown up.

In addition to the three Monopteros systems and the Aeolus II, DEWI built its first systems with an output of 5 to 30 kW in 1992. In 1997, the first series-produced megawatt-class wind turbines were erected in the Jade wind farm, produced by Nordex and Vestas . The DEWI carried out power curve , noise and load measurements on these systems . Two Enercon plants were built in place of the three single-wing aircraft that were dismantled in 2001.

In 2003 the second prototype of the Enercon E-112 was erected in the Jade wind farm. At that time it was the most powerful wind turbine in the world. A second E-112 was originally supposed to be built in 2005 only a few kilometers from the Jade wind farm as a nearshore installation in the Inner Jade in front of the Hooksiel Inland Deep . Due to problems with the subsoil when the foundation was being put in, the system was then set up on land in the test field of DEWI-OCC Offshore and Certification Center GmbH near Cuxhaven .
