GE Renewable Energy has announced 576 MW of orders from Invenergy for 187 onshore wind turbines.
The trio of contracts for its 2.X turbines on will power the equivalent of 160,000 American homes across three US states.
It will supply 54 2.X-127 turbines to the 110MW Crescent Wind Energy Center in Michigan and 30 of the same model as well as 6 2.X-116 blades for the 166MW Contrail Wind Energy Center in Iowa.
The largest order is for 97 2.X-127 turbines for the 300MW Deuel Harvest Wind Energy Center in South Dakota.
GE’s 2MW product platform has a total installed capacity of more than 15GW and operates at an industry-leading average of over 98% availability, it said.
GE Renewable Energy CEO for Onshore Wind Americas, Vikas Anand said: “GE Renewable Energy is proud to continue our longstanding relationship with Invenergy with these three wind farms.
“Our 2.X platform leverages proven, reliable technology and is ideally suited for this part of the country at a time when the world needs access to clean, affordable energy.”
All three projects are scheduled to be operational by the first quarter of 2021 or earlier.
