The thesis examines only Fowler Ridge, which mostly has 1.65MW Vestas v82 with a 41m blade length and hub height of 70m. The latest I could easily get specs for is a 3MW Vestas: 56m blade length, 84m hub. Higher, more efficient, and most importantly: slower which kills fewer birds.
Last year they introduced a the V164 at 7.0MW: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestas
