The contract comprises the supply, installation, a VestasOnline Business supervisory control and data acquisition solution, as well as a five-year service agreement. The project will be located in the Spanish province of Lerida in the Catalan Pyrenees.
Delivery of the wind turbines for Les Rotes y Monclues will begin in 2009. With an estimated annual production capacity of approximately 144GWh, the wind power plant will satisfy the electricity needs of approximately 66,000 Spanish households and will correspond to an annual emission saving of almost 60,000 tons of CO2.
Juan Araluce, president of Vestas Mediterranean, said: We are very satisfied that Eolia Renovables has chosen Vestas to take advantage of the wind potential of Catalonia. This new contract is a further step towards developing Vestas’s position in this region, which has a growing interest in wind energy.
