Gamesa is to supply 33 turbines to Gunkul Engineering for the 67.5MW Sarahnlom wind farm in Thailand.
The Spanish manufacturer will deliver 18 G114 2MW units and 15 G114 2.1MW machines on towers 153 metres high, which will make them the tallest turbines in Asia.
In total, including the 56-metre blades, the turbines will have a height from ground to tip of 210 metres, Gamesa said.
The turbines will be supplied during the first quarter of 2017 and commissioned the following quarter.
Gamesa will also maintain the project for 10 years.
Developer PowerChina ZhongNan will build the wind farm in Nakhon Ratchasima province in central Thailand.
Gamesa marketing director Juan Diego Diaz said: “In designing such tall towers, which are almost 30 metres taller than is usual for this model, and at a competitive cost, Gamesa’s R&D team has achieved a major technological feat.
“On the one hand, we reduce the cost of energy of the complex by boosting total energy output, as the turbines will reach heights at which the wind blows harder.
“On the other hand, we are demonstrating once again our ability to respond to what the market needs thanks to the versatility of our turbines.”
