The development of the large Vestas MW wind turbine began in December, 1992. The design project was {open_quotes}funded{close_quotes} by the EEC and should lead to the building of a prototype to be erected no later than September, 1995. The aim was to design a MW wind turbine competitive with medium size wind turbines (500 kW) on a $/kWh basis. The design is now finished and calculations show that the project has succeeded.
