The wind turbines the Spanish company will supply correspond to the Gamesa G5x-850 kW and G8x-2.0 MW product platforms
The wind turbines ordered correspond to the company’s two product platforms – nine Gamesa G5X-850 kW wind turbines and ninety-one G87-2.0 MW wind turbines –, and will be destined to the A Valliña, Aguilón, Llanos del Espino, Cerro Gavira and Cogollos II wind farms in Spain.
These orders amount to more than €175 million and include the delivery, startup and installation of the wind turbines, along with their operation and maintenance. These projects are included within the framework agreement entered into by Gamesa and Endesa in 2007 for the supply of 500 MW to different wind energy projects in
The awarding of these new orders has reinforced Gamesa’s position in the Spanish wind power market, where the company has been the market leader since it started up its activities.
From an environmental viewpoint, the wind turbine generators Gamesa will supply to these wind farms will contribute towards generating electricity supplies that respect the environment and avoid the emission of pollutants to the atmosphere. More specifically, the annual production of these installations’ 190 MW will replace 21,500 tons of petroleum equivalent (TPE) per year and avoid the emission into the atmosphere of 150,000 tons of CO2 a year.
