Vestas has secured a turbine order from Enlight Renewable Energy for the 113MW Malarberget wind project in Norberg County, Sweden.
Vestas will supply 27 V150-4.2 MW turbines and will service the turbines for 30 years, the lifetime of the wind farm.
The contract includes supply, installation and commissioning of the wind turbines.
Delivery is scheduled for the third quarter of 2020, while commissioning is expected to start in the fourth quarter of next year.
Enlight chief executive Gilad Yavetz said: “We are very pleased to collaborate with Vestas on Enlight’s first project in the Nordics.
“Enlight is expanding in rapid pace with special focus on merchant markets and sees Vestas as a strong player to take part and contribute to this significant growth.”
With this project, Vestas has surpassed the 400MW order intake for the V150-4.2 MW turbine in Sweden.
Vestas north and west sales vice president Christer Baden Hansen said, “This order underlines the V150-4.2 MW turbine’s excellent fit with Sweden’s wind conditions and our market leading position in Sweden.
“We are excited to engage in a long-term partnership with Enlight for this project in the Nordic markets, demonstrating our strong experience and track record operating in a merchant environment.”
