The company will also supply 19 units of V100-1.8MW turbine for the 34.2MW Bull Hill wind power plant in Hancock County, Maine.
The orders for both projects include delivery and commissioning along with a ten-year service and maintenance agreement.
The Palouse contract includes Vestas’ service program, active output management (AOM) 5000, while the Bull Hill service agreement includes the AOM 4000 maintenance program.
