The scope of the contract includes supply and delivery, installation supervision of 24 V100-2MW wind turbines along with VestasOnline business SCADA solution as well as a standard two-year service agreement.

The turbines will be installed in Changli Datan, Hebei province. Vestas stated that the average wind speed on the site is as low as six metres per second, among the lowest wind speed sites in China for which Vestas has ever provided solutions.

The contract does not include towers. The delivery of the first wind turbine is expected to start in the first quarter of 2014.

Vestas Asia Pacific & China president Jens Tommerup said, "It is important for Vestas to become a strong player in the low wind speed segment.

"With lower wind speeds, reliability and productivity of the turbines are ever more important. I am very pleased to see our customers’ continuous recognition of our offerings within the low wind regime."
