Jones Bros and Balfour Beatty have completed the first phase of civil and electrical works at Vattenfall’s 228MW Pen y Cymoedd wind farm in Wales.
The civil works began in February 2014, comprising the construction of concrete foundations for 76 turbines, the laying of 56 kilometers of power cables and preparing 80 kilometers of access tracks.
The joint venture will now focus on the re-instatement and final cable terminations, it said.
Pen y Cymoedd is scheduled to start generating electricity by the end of the year.
Joint venture project manager Eryl Roberts said: “Completion of phase one is a major milestone and we are really pleased that the project is right on schedule.”
