LM Wind Power Group, Kolding (DK): "We’ve shattered the size record again. Meet LM 88.4 P - the longest, most advanced, wind turbine blade in the world.

This huge component of 88.4 meters has been specifically designed for Adwen’s AD 8-180 wind turbine model, with 8MW nominal capacity and a 180 meter rotor diameter.
