Santa Luce S.r.l, a special purpose company of Fera S.r.l, placed the order for the delivery, transportation, installation and commissioning of 11 Siemens’ V100-1.8MW wind turbines besides a VestasOnline business SCADA system.
The company also secured a 15-year service and maintenance contract on active output management basis.
Vestas Italia general manager Rainer Karan said that the order highlights the confidence that Fera has in its 2MW platform and that the company is confident of contributing to the country’s wind generation infrastructure.
"Having been chosen by Santa Luce S.r.l. for the first V100-1.8 MW wind farm in Italy is a clear sign of the company’s trust in our proven and reliable 2 MW platform," said Karan.
The company will start delivery of the turbines in the third quarter of 2012 while the project is expected to be commercially operational by the end of the year.
The wind power plant is expected to produce 53 GWh of energy per annum that leads to 21,000 tons of CO2 emissions reduction.
