Vestas is to supply turbines totalling 42MW to Swiss developer Fu-Gen’s Fjallboheden wind farm in northern Sweden.
The 10 V150-4.2MW machines will be equipped with the Vestas anti-icing system, which minimises ice formation on blades.
The contract includes supply, installation and commissioning of the turbines, as well as a 27-year active output management service agreement and VestasOnline Business SCADA solution to lower turbine downtime and optimise the energy output.
Delivery is scheduled for the second quarter of 2021, while commissioning is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Fjallboheden is located north-west of Skelleftea.
Fu-Gen chairman Matthias Rapp said: “This project is a major first milestone for Fu-Gen and its partner Abraxas Capital Management in the Swedish market.
“We are delighted to have Vestas as the supplier of turbines and of the AOM service agreement and look forward to a fruitful cooperation for the future.”
Vestas Northern & Central Europe president Nils de Baar said: “With the Fjallboheden project, Vestas once again demonstrates the ability to offer wind energy solutions and services that optimise the cost of energy in a demanding climatic environment, while at the same time create maximum value for our valued customer.”
