Vestas lands another large order in the Spanish Market

The four projects i.e. Peña 1 and 2 and Picazo and Monteneme, will be installed in Guadalajara in the region of Castilla-La Mancha. Castilla La Mancha is the region with the highest total installed wind capacity in Spain with 3,131 MW installed by the beginning of this year. Delivery and commissioning of the wind turbines are scheduled to start in 2009 and once completed the project is expected to produce 181 GWh of power between the plants, this will add up to annual C02 savings of 104,000 tons and be enough for power delivery to 39,000 Spanish households.

Juan Araluce, President of Vestas Mediterranean A/S was quoted as saying; “We are very satisfied that we have signed this new contract for the Spanish market, which once again, confirms EUFER’s confidence in Vestas and our technology. Together with the 112 MW order received from EUFER last week, EUFER’s recent orders amount to a total of 97 wind turbines distributed on eight wind power plants in Spain.,”
