At the occasion of the contract signature, Andreas Nauen, CEO of Senvion SE, commented: “We are delighted to deliver our turbines for this flagship project with the First Nations. Big wind farms like Mesgi'g Ugju's'n highlight the importance of the renewable sector for the country,” said Helmut Herold, CEO North America at Senvion Canada Inc. "I am happy that, once again, Innergex has put its trust in us. I am convinced that our flexibility and our persistence but also our stellar performance at the Viger-Denonville community wind farm have paid off. We have experienced local teams here in Quebec, which makes me confident that the project realisation will work very smoothly,” Herold said. Viger-Denonville is the first community wind farm in Quebec. The Senvion MM92 turbines that were commissioned in November 2013, have an availability of 99.5 per cent on average.
