Vestas, the Denmark-based wind turbine-maker, has received two orders in China to supply 29 turbines for two wind farms in China, totaling 100MW in generating capacity.

The first order was placed by China Three Gorge Renewables (CTG Renewables), a new customer for Vestas. The second order was placed by an undisclosed customer for a wind farm with 50MW of capacity.

For CTG Renewables, Vestas has agreed to supply 15 of its V155-3.3 MW turbines with 142m towers, which will be installed at the 50 MW Juye I project. The wind farm will be located in Heze, Shandong province in China.

As part of the order, the Danish company will also provide 5 -year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) services for the wind farm.

China Three Gorge Renewables general manager Guoqing Zhao said: “We are glad to enter the partnership with Vestas, who is known as an international leading renewable energy solution provider.

“With Vestas’ latest 4 MW platform variant and high tower solution, we hope to make the Juye project, located in a low-wind area, a successful case for CGT Renewables.”

The wind turbines are expected to be delivered in the fourth quarter of this year and the commissioning is planned to take place during the same period.
