Vestas has received a 140MW turbine order for a wind project in Alberta, Canada.
The company will supply, deliver and commission 31 V150-4.5MW units for the Halkirk 2 development owned by Capital Power. It will also service the machines for 10 years.
“We’re thrilled to partner again with Capital Power to expand their wind energy portfolios in Canada, particularly with one of the industry’s highest producing onshore wind turbines,” said president of Vestas North America Laura Beane.
She added: “The 4MW platform is ideally suited for Alberta’s wind environment and our strong service operations will ensure Capital Power’s projects operate at full capacity.”
Turbine delivery is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2024 with commissioning scheduled for fourth quarter 2024.
Steve Owens, Senior Vice President, Construction and Engineering for Capital Power, said: “The V150-4.5 MW wind turbines will bring our Halkirk 2 Wind project to life as we continue to power a sustainable future for people and planet.”
