Vestas has secured a 41MW turbine deal for the expansion of a wind farm in Schleswig-Holstein in Germany.
The order, from Burgerwindpark Reusenkoge is for 12 V112-3.45 MW machines, which will be delivered in the third quarter of 2020.
Commissioning is expected in the fourth quarter of next year.
The order comprises the supply, installation and commissioning of the turbines.
The additional 41MW order takes the wind farm’s installed capacity up to 210MW, with the potential for further expansion up to 300MW in the coming years, making it one of the world’s largest citizen-owned wind projects.
Burgerwindpark Reusenkoge managing director Dirk Ketelsen said: “This 12 V 112-3.45 MW turbine expansion is another major step to building out our citizen wind park to provide sustainable energy to the region.
“We started this journey in 1989 with our first turbine and we plan to expand this citizen wind park to up to 300MW in the coming years.
With the 12 new turbines, Vestas will have provided 63 V112-turbines for this wind project.”
