Vestas is to supply GS Power with six V112 3.3MW turbines for the Yaksoo wind park, which is to be located in South Korea’s southwestern Jeonnam province.
Yaksoo is the first wind energy project for GS Power, part of the South Korean conglomerate GS Group.
Delivery and commissioning are expected during the second half of 2016. Vestas will be responsible for the supply of wind turbines and supervision of installation.
The deal also includes a 16-year active output management 4000 service contract, and a Scada VestasOnline Business for data-driven monitoring and preventive maintenance.
GS Power vice president Jinho Kim said: “Vestas’ leading wind energy solutions ensure a low cost of energy for the project, which among other things is achieved through the hub height of the turbines, which will make the turbines the tallest in South Korea.”
Vestas Pan-Asia head Danny Nielsen said: “Vestas is honoured to collaborate with GS Power on their first wind energy project.”
