Iran: Domestically-Made Turbines to Help Increase Wind Power

Domestic manufacturers are in the process of constructing wind turbines with generator capacity up to 250 kilowatts, operator of the project said.
“Manufacturing the medium-size turbine can help pave the way for access to much-needed technology to build bigger engines and help harness renewables via access to clean, reliable and affordable energy,” Ahad Zabet was quoted as saying by ISNA.
Harnessing wind power with the help of domestically-produced turbines should be cost-effective, he said, adding that land-based utility-scale wind is one of the lowest-priced energy sources available so far.
