Vestas has received a firm order from SAB WindTeam GmbH for the 43MW Bockenem onshore project in Lower Saxony, Germany.
It consists of seven V162-6.2MW turbines and includes supply, delivery, and commissioning of the machines.
Upon completion, the Danish manufacturer will service the hardware under a 25-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement designed to ensure optimised performance of the assets.
“We are pleased to build upon our strong track-record to successfully execute projects with SAB,” said vice president sales central Europe in Vestas Sulai Fahimi.
“This project is another great example of the collaboration between SAB and Vestas.
“We would like to thank the whole SAB team for their trust in Vestas and our products and we are looking forward to the upcoming projects in the joint pipeline.”
SAB WindTeam managing director Lars Niebuhr added: “The Bockenem wind farm is the next project in our intensified collaboration with Vestas. The project is a very important milestone in our presence in Lower Saxony and emphasises our commitment as a reliable partner for all local stakeholders involved.”
Turbine delivery is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2024 with commissioning scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2025.
