Siemens Gamesa is to supply turbines totalling 208MW to Engie’s Tonstad wind farm in Norway.
The order covers the supply of 51 DD-142 machines, as well as a long-term service agreement.
Installation will start next year, Siemens Gamesa said.
The wind farm is located in the municipalities of Sirdal and Flekkefjord in southern Norway.
Electricity from the project will be sold to Hydro Energi, a subsidiary of Norwegian aluminium producer Hydro, under a 25-year power purchase agreement.
Siemens Gamesa onshore chief executive for North Europe and the Middle East Steven Pryor said: “This project shows once more the strength of our global setup. Our experience in the Scandinavian market and our turbines with their compelling track record in the Nordic region ensure the best possible support and value creation for our customer.”
Engie Nordics chief executive Sandra Roche said: “Siemens Gamesa is the ideal partner for Engie to support our market entry in Norway.
“Based on its global setup and experience in the Scandinavian market together with proven technology and best in class service Siemens Gamesa is very well positioned in the growing Norwegian wind power market.”
