Vestas has secured a 145MW order to power the Panorama Wind Farm in Colorado, USA, which is owned by Leeward Renewable Energy.
The order consists of a mix of 2MW platform turbines including V120-2.2 MW, V110-2.2 MW, and V110-2.0 MW turbines.
The contract follows Vestas’ earlier agreement with Leeward Renewable Energy to supply 61MW of V110-2.0MW and V120-2.2MW turbines to repower the Crescent Ridge Wind project in Illinois.
Vestas’ vice president of sales in North America Jeff Fuchs said: “We’re proud to once again partner with Leeward Renewable Energy on a project that extends the successful run of Vestas’ 2MW platform in the state.”
Leeward Renewable Energy’s chief development officer Andrew Flanagan said: “Leeward is pleased to partner with Vestas and deliver sustainable wind energy and economic benefits to the people of Colorado.”
The order includes supply and commissioning of the turbines, as well as a 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, designed to ensure optimised performance of the asset.
Turbine delivery will begin in the third quarter of 2021 and construction is expected to be completed in December 2021.
