Vestas has secured an order from BayWa for the 95MW wind project in Kronoberg County, Sweden.
The Lyngsåsa wind farm will feature 22 V150-4.2MW turbines delivered in 4.3MW power optimised mode to maximise the project’s power production.
Vestas Northern & Central Europe president Nils de Baar said: “This order, from our valued, long-term partner BayWa r.e., once again underlines our ability to leverage our extensive expertise across the value chain to deliver a solution that ensures clean energy at the lowest cost of energy to the Swedish energy consumers.
“We look forward to maximising our customer’s return on investment by offering a competitive cost of energy”.
The order for Vestas includes supply, installation, commissioning of the wind turbines, in addition to a 25-year Active Output Management (AOM 5000) service agreement and a VestasOnline Business SCADA solution.
BayWa r.e. Scandinavia AB CEO Håkan Wallin said: “Vestas has developed a competitive solution that meets our site-specific requirements while at the same time maximises the value and performance from the Lyngsåsa wind site, which we have developed from greenfield. We are happy to have found the right technology and long-term service agreement and we look forward to continuing our successful partnership with Vestas.”
Vestas to begin turbine delivery for the Swedish wind farm from Q1 2021
The Danish wind turbine manufacturer is expected to deliver the turbines to BayWa starting from the first quarter of 2021. Commissioning of the turbines at the new Swedish wind farm is planned for the second quarter of 2021.
In August, Vestas secured an order from E.ON’s subsidiary Avacon Natur for a 29MW wind farm to be built in Lower Saxony, Germany.
Prior to that, in July, the Danish company bagged a 41MW turbine order from Bürgerwindpark Reußenköge for the expansion of a citizen-owned wind park located in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
