Vestas has scored a pair of turbine supply contracts for wind farms in Greece and China to boost its order book for 2015.
The manufacturer is to supply Elliniki Technodomiki Anemos with 40MW for the Lyrkio wind farm in the Peloponnese region of Greece.
The company will deliver, install and commission 12 V112 3.3MW units.
Delivery is scheduled for the third quarter of 2016, with commissioning expected in the first quarter of 2017.
The deal also includes a 15-year Active Output Management 4000 service agreement.
Vestas Mediterranean president Marco Graziano said: “The order from Elliniki Technodomiki Anemos reaffirms that wind energy provides a strong business case when the wind resources are right and that Greece’s wind potential is still significant.”
In China, Vestas will supply Hanas Group with 50MW for the Wanglejing Sunjialou wind park in the west of the country.
The Danes will deliver and commission 25 V110 2.0MW units (pictured) for the project, which will be located in China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region, in the second half of 2016.
The deal also includes a two-year Active Output Management 4000 service contract and a Scada VestasOnline Business for data-driven monitoring and preventive maintenance.
It follows a 250MW order from the Hanas Group in November and will take the company’s fleet of Vestas turbines to 900MW.
Vestas Asia Pacific and China president Chris Beaufait said: “Vestas is firmly on track in China, and we are confident that our ability to drive down the cost of energy will position us well as the Chinese market increasingly focuses on lifetime costs.”
