The 72 offshore turbines are placed in a parallelogram with eight rows of nine turbines each. All the turbines are painted in the same discrete airforce grey colour. The turbines were supplied by Siemens and built according to “the Danish concept”, i.e. three-blade turbines that turn clockwise.

The turbine tower itself is 69 metres high. Each blade is 40 metres long. At its highest, the tip of the blade reaches a height of 110 metres.

Due to aviation safety considerations, six of the outer turbines are fitted with white, synchronous flashing lights on top of the nacelle, while the remaining turbines have a weaker, constant, red light. The intensity of the aviation indicators can be raised or lowered, depending on visibility.

Every turbine can generate an output of 2.3 MW. The combined effect therefore reaches 165.6 MW, making Nysted Wind Farm one of the largest in the world
