The Wikipedia article also provide some records for wind turbines<\/strong><\/p>\n

The world’s largest turbines are manufactured by the Northern German companies Enercon and REpower. The Enercon E112 delivers up to 6 MW, has an overall height of 186 m and a diameter of 114 m, the REpower 5M delivers up to 5 MW, has an overall height of 183 m and a diameter of 126 m.<\/p>\n

The turbine closest to the north pole is a Nordex N-80 in Havoygalven near Hammerfest, Norway. The ones closest to the south pole are two Enercon E-30 on Antarctica, used to power the Australian Research Division’s Mawson Bay station.<\/p>\n

The highest located turbine is at 2300 m on the mountain G\u00fctsch near Andermatt, Switzerland. Originally a prototype of the Dutch company Lagerwey was tested there, however, it failed to meet the expectations and was demolished in 2002. Since October 2004 an Enercon E-40 produces electricity there.<\/p>\n
