Ming Yang Smart Energy has officially announced its new medium-speed, compact semi-direct drive product line, and the OceanX platform’s 50 MW ultra-large floating wind turbine, pushing the global single-unit capacity record to a new high and driving floating wind power into a new era of commercial, large-scale deployment.

The breakthrough capacity is made possible by the innovative Y-series platform architecture: a “dual-rotor” configuration in which two 25 MW powertrain modules are linked on a V-shaped tower structure to form a single machine. Mounted on a floating foundation engineered for waters deeper than 40 meters, the turbine offers proven typhoon resistance and opens an entirely new solution for tapping deep-sea wind resources.

As the global leader in semi-direct drive technology, Ming Yang also introduced its next-generation medium-speed compact drive (MCD) product family, ushering wind power into an age that is “more reliable, more efficient, more grid-friendly, more economical and more intelligent.”

More reliable: flexible-pin load equalization, an integrated centralized lubrication system and multi-source fused modeling with tiered cooperative smart control cut key-component loading and extended turbine life, securing stable operation under extreme conditions.

More efficient: inheriting the high-efficiency DNA of the medium-speed compact drivetrain, the turbine pairs high-performance blades with advanced control algorithms to deliver a significant uplift in energy output.

More grid-friendly: strong grid-forming capability adapts to varied network environments and transmission schemes for long-distance deep-sea power delivery, keeping wind farms stable.

More economical: highly integrated design reduces part count, shortens nacelle length and lowers major-component failure rates, cutting levelized cost of energy across the full life cycle.

More intelligent: backed by a physics-plus-AI smart wind-farm platform, the system predicts faults in advance, senses operations holographically and acts before issues arise.

The MCD technology covers the complete onshore and offshore product spectrum—from desert and gobi mega-bases to low- and medium-wind inland regions and high-altitude sites—efficiently mastering the most complex conditions on land and at sea. Black-start and grid-forming features support DRU-based HVdc transmission, slashing the cost of offshore converter stations while boosting transmission reliability and enabling flexible energy regulation under extreme plant conditions—ideal for far-from-shore, stand-alone or island grids and providing solid backing for large-scale ocean-energy development.

Going forward, Ming Yang Smart Energy will stay committed to innovation-led, technology-first principles, joining hands with global partners to drive continuous evolution in wind technology and contribute ever greater Ming Yang strength to a zero-carbon future.
