How big are the blades of a wind turbine?
For an average 1.5 MW turbine, the blades are between 35 to 45 meters. This gives an average rotor diameter of around 75 to 100 meters.
.
Typical installed price for a 1 MW wind turbine is in the $1. 0 million range per megawatt. This includes equipment, installation, permitting, and interconnection. For budgeting, use a per kW basis of about $1,200 to $2,000 per kW, depending on site .
