The Klevberget wind farm will be GE’s fifth Cypress project with OX2 and includes a 35-year full-service contract. It will operate the Cypress turbines at 6.1 MW, with a rotor diameter of 158 metres. The installation of the wind turbines at the project site will commence in Q2 2023 and the turbines are scheduled to be fully commissioned and operational in the second half of 2023.
“OX2 is one of the biggest developers of wind farms in the Nordic region, and we are thrilled they’ve selected our most powerful onshore wind turbine for this fifth wind farm” said Gilan Sabatier, GE’s Chief Commercial Officer for Onshore Wind International. “In partnership with OX2, we will deliver even more affordable and sustainable renewable energy to Sweden, helping the country to reach its ambitious decarbonisation targets."
The Cypress platform includes wind turbines with 158- and 164-metre rotor diameters, various hub heights, and power ratings between 4.8 and 6.1 MW. It is equipped with both single piece and jointed blade variants, improving logistics and offering increased output from hard-to-reach sites. Since its introduction, GE Renewable Energy has received more than 7 GW of orders for its Cypress turbines in multiple countries around the world.
