The Rysumer Nacken wind farm is a wind farm on the Knock near Emden , which houses some of the largest wind turbines in the world when they were built.

Construction site of the prototype of the E-126 in Emden an der Knock in August 2007

Since 2007, two BARD VM 5000 kW wind turbines with a hub height of 90 meters and a rotor diameter of 122 meters have been installed in the Rysum wind farm . These were replaced in 2012 by BARD 6.5 systems with a nominal output of 6.5 MW. In 2017 the original type BARD 5.0 ​​was reinstalled because the development of the BARD 6.5 was discontinued.

The largest wind turbines in the wind farm went into operation in November 2008. These are two Enercon E-126 wind turbines with a hub height of 135 meters and a rotor diameter of 126 meters. To ensure stability in the soft subsoil, 64 piles with an average length of 25 meters and a diameter of 56 cm were driven into the ground for the foundation of an E-126. 1500 m³ of concrete and 180 tons of reinforcing steel were used in the base.

In addition, there is a 198.5 meter high meteorological wind measuring mast in the Rysumer Nacken wind farm , the highest in a German wind farm.
