The 100 MW order in Vietnam is for an undisclosed project and covers supply, supervision of the installation, and commissioning of the wind turbines. With this project, Vestas’ total capacity of onshore wind turbines in Vietnam will surpass 1.6 GW.
Located near the shorelines of the Mekong Delta, the wind farm includes 24 Vestas V150-4.2 MW wind turbines with a number delivered 4.0 MW operating mode, all with a hub height of 105 metres. The order demonstrates Vestas’ ability to formulate site specific solutions to cater to the site’s complex environment at near shore conditions.
The order also includes a 15-year Active Output Management 4000 (AOM 4000) service agreement for the wind farm, to ensure optimised performance and long-term business case certainty for the customer.
Commissioning of the wind farm is planned for the fourth quarter of 2022.
In partnership with Tenaris, Vestas has secured a 103 MW deal for the Buena Ventura project in the Province of Buenos Aires, in Argentina.
The project will feature 24 V150-4.2 MW wind turbines in 4.3 MW operating mode which Vestas will supply and install. Upon completion, Vestas will also deliver a 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement. This agreement will optimise energy production while also providing long-term business case certainty.
“We are delighted to seal this first deal with Tenaris and support this renowned company, with worldwide operations including and a strong presence in Latin America, to accelerate the decarbonising of its production, as part of its energy transition strategy” said Sales Senior Director for Vestas LATAM South Cone, Andrés Gismondi.
