GE Renewable Energy has been selected by Repsol to supply turbines for wind farms with a combined capacity of 133MW, in Spain.
The manufacturer will supply 22 units of its 6.1MW wind turbines to six of the wind farms in Repsol’s Delta 2 project (Santa Cruz 1, Amp, 2, 3, and San Isidro 1 and 2) in Aragon.
The Delta 2 project is Repsol’s largest renewable project under construction, with a total capacity of 860MW.
The blades will be manufactured by GE’s wind turbine blade subsidiary, LM Wind Power, which operates from Ponferrada (León) and Castellón in Spain.
The wind turbine towers will also be produced in Spain, while the nacelles will be produced in Salzbergen, Germany.
Gilan Sabatier, Chief Commercial Officer, of GE Renewable Energy, Onshore Wind International, said: “Our sincere gratitude to Repsol for their trust in our technology for this flagship project.
“We are very proud to contribute to the development of the wind industry in Spain and specifically in the region of Aragon.”
Enrique Pedrosa, Chief Operating Officer for Europe and Latin America in Repsol’s low carbon generation business, added: “This new agreement with GE Renewable Energy is a further step towards meeting our ambitious goal of reaching 6GW of renewables by 2025 and 20GW by 2030.”
