Gamesa sill install two G97-2MW turbines at Rodbaston wind farm in central England; two G80-2MW at French Farm in the east of England.
It will also tackle six G87s at Mynydd Portref in South Wales; four G80-2MW machines at Mynydd Brombil, also in South Wales; and three G80 turbines with a rated power at 1.66MW each at Brackagh Quarry in Northern Ireland.
