According to Siemens Gamesa's announcement on Twitter earlier this week, 359 megawatt-hours within a 24-hour time period is the most power one turbine has ever produced over this duration, and enough energy to drive 1.8 million km in a mid-sized electric car.
Offshorewind.biz indicated that the record for production over a 24-hour period was previously held by the GE Haliade-X offshore wind turbine prototype installed at Sif Maasvlakte 2 in the Port of Rotterdam which generated 312 MWh of electricity during the period back in November 2020.
