The new site is located near the coast in Putian County, Fujian Province, and the first delivery is scheduled to take place in the third quarter of 2010.
The contract includes towers, delivery, transportation, installation and commissioning of the wind turbines, a VestasOnline Business SCADA solution and a two-year service and maintenance agreement.
This solution includes a range of monitoring and control functions allowing the wind park to be controlled in the same way as a conventional power plant. In this way, customers have full control of power production as well as full overview of the operational status of each individual wind turbine, Vestas said.
Shen Longshan, general manager of Fujian Energy Wind Power Company, said: “Vestas is the world’s technology leader in wind energy and Fujian Energy Group is a key enterprise in Fujian’s energy sector.
“When it comes to the long-term view and future prospects of developing the wind energy sector, both companies are very much aligned – we are both devoted to the development of sustainable and clean wind energy projects. The excellent skills and professionalism of Vestas’ engineers and their meticulous working habits have made a very deep impression on us.”
Jens Tommerup, president of Vestas China, said: “Fujian Energy Wind Power Company has seen the future and recognises that wind energy has an important role to play for the sustainable development of the Fujian Province. Vestas is proud to take part in the pursuit of realizing this vision of a more sustainable future.
“We are a customer focused company and this is a great opportunity for us. Not only to deliver and prove the productivity and quality of our first-rate wind power plants, but also as a chance to demonstrate the breadth and scope of our support and service programs. We will continue to work closely with Fujian Energy Wind Power Company in the future.”
