Alstom has received a contract from DaeMyoung Energy Corporation to provide wind turbines for Gowon wind farm in South Korea. The wind farm is located in Gangwon province approximately 170km east of Seoul. Alstom will supply and supervise the installation and commissioning of 6 units of the ECO 110 Wind Turbines with 90m towers, each with an output of 3MW.

When operational, the wind farm will have a capacity of 18MW. The ECO 110 is equipped with Alstom pure Torque technology which protects the transmission chain by diverting unwanted stresses from the wind to the turbine's tower and thereby optimising performance. Exclusively developed by Alstom and deployed throughout its entire range of wind turbines, this technology increases the reliability and durability of each turbine.

In addition, the nacelle's specific design made up of three independent elements and of large dimensions, facilitates maintenance operations and safety inside of the machine. The Gowon wind farm will be fully operational by the end of 2015.
