Enercon has secured a contract to deliver 13 turbines for the Windpark Oostpolder development in the Netherlands.
The deal is for E-136 EP5 4.65MW machines, 12 of which will go to Waddenwind and one to Gijzenberg Windenergie.
The turbines will have a rotor diameter of 136 metres and 155-metre hub heights.
The wind farm will generate over 200 million kilowatt-hours of electricity when operational.
Construction is scheduled to start next summer.
Windpark Oostpolder is named after a polder – reclaimed land – with the same name, located to the south of Eemshaven port.
The 12 Waddenwind turbines will be situated in the Oostpolder’ eastern section, and the remaining Gijzenberg turbine just outside its southern border.
Another eight E-136 EP5 turbines are in a planning stage within the Oostpolder’s western part.
Topwind Consultancy conducted the turbine tender process and operations and maintenance contracts on behalf of Windpark Oostpolder.
The consultancy will also manage construction.
