Vestas has received its second and final turbine order for the 34MW Dreieck Spreeau wind project in east Germany.
The 8MW order, placed by developer ABO Wind, comprises two V150-4.2MW turbines.
It follows an unannounced 25MW order for the same wind park earlier this year.
Deliveries are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2021, while commissioning is planned for the first quarter of 2022.
The project is the largest in Germany to use the V150-4.2MW units.
Each of the eight turbines will have 166 metre high hub heights.
Vestas will service the units for 15 years.
The order takes Vestas’ firm order intake in Germany past 250MW in 2020, adding to existing installed capacity in the country of more than 14.5GW.
Vestas northern and central Europe sales vice president Alex Robertson said: “I would like to thank ABO Wind for once again choosing Vestas as a partner for realising this significant project.
“ABO Wind’s success with the V150-4.2 MW turbine shows, that barriers against permits for new projects can be overcome. With a slowly growing volume of permitted projects, we see that the order intake and installations are going up as well.
“It is important that this development continues, and that the expansion really picks up speed again. The German energy turnaround must finally get back on track.”
