Vestas has awarded Global Wind Service the installation contract for the 105MW Hogaliden wind project in Sweden.
Hogaliden, located in the region of Umea, will host 25 V150-4.2MW MK3E turbines with hub heights of 125 metres.
Pre-installation work at the site is expected to commence early August 2020.
Norway’s Fred Olsen Renewables owns the project.
Global Wind Service chief commercial officer Lars Petersen said: “We are very pleased that Vestas has chosen Global Wind Service with this Swedish project, thereby continuing our good partnership.
“We have been working with Vestas since the very beginning in 2008 where they were one of our first clients – something we are very proud of.
“The fact that it is a Fred Olsen Renewables project is just another great factor, as we will be able to deliver our usual high quality to a related company.”
“In Global Wind Service, we found an experienced partner with the right values. We have worked with them for many years and trust that they will meet our expectations also on this project” said Paul Otamendi Vestas North & Central Europe global procurement officer.
