The HybridDrive combines a two-stage planetary gearbox and a medium-speed synchronous generator in one unit, and is supplemented by a frequency converter.

The FL 3000 wind turbine uses the same drive train concept as the FL 2500, and will have a rotor diameter of 120 m. It will be suitable for use up to wind class IEC 2a.

The first prototype of the wind turbine is expected with a year.

The project is the result cooperation between Winergy, Fuhrländer and W2E Wind to Energy GmbH.
