In addition to the its 5M wind turbine series that is currently in production, REpower now has the most powerful wind turbine in the world in its portfolio. REpower said that the rated electrical power of the units is 6.15 MW.

The REpower 6M is currently the most powerful turbine in the world," said Matthias Schubert, REpower's CTO. The turbine has a rotor diameter of 126 meters with a hub height of 80-95 meters in offshore installations and 100-117 meters in onshore installations. The dimensions correspond exactly to those of the REpower 5M, so the REpower 6M can later be used in all the projects planned for this turbine type.
