Gamesa, a global leader in wind energy, has entered
into an agreement with Terna Energy for the supply of 74 of its G114-2.1 MW
turbines (155 MW) at a wind complex being developed in Texas, in southern
United States. This order is included in the
third-quarter order intake figure already disclosed, which amounted to 1.090
MW.
Under the terms of the agreement, Gamesa will deliver and
commission the project and supply Operation and Maintenance services for 5
years. The turbines are slated for delivery in 2017, with commissioning to be
completed the same year. Optimized for low and medium wind speed sites, the
turbine model is one of Gamesa's most competitive to date.
The company has a long and established presence in the United
States. Completion of the project, along with others under construction, will
tip Gamesa’s total installed capacity in the United States past 5,000 MW.
