Vestas receives order for 34 V90-3.0 MW wind turbines in Portugal

This order comes from Enersis SGPS S.A.. The company is one of the largest independent producers of renewable energy, and is owned by Babcock & Brown. Vestas has already installed 123 units of this turbine in Portugal, by the end of last year. The total amount of power being generated by these turbines amounts to 498 MW, easily displacing two large coal fired plants.

The wind turbines in this order are expected to be delivered being in autumn of this year and will be completed by autumn 2009. This particular plant will produce about 264 GWH per year. The order calls for the delivery of supply, installation, commissioning of the wind turbines, a VestasOnlineTM Business SCADA solution, as well as a five-yearservice agreement.

“We are very pleased that Enersis once again has chosen the V90-3.0 MW turbine for a new project in Portugal, which will be added to Enersis' existing fleet of 76 V90-3.0 MW turbines,” says Juan Araluce, President of Vestas Mediterranean A/S, and continues: “This will be the fourth V90-3.0 MW project that Vestas establishes with Enersis in Portugal.”
