Both contracts include supply, installation, commissioning, a VestasOnline Business Scada solution as well as a five-year service contract. The orders have been placed by the Vortex Energy Group, a German energy developer. The owner of the projects will be ScanEnergy, a Danish investor focused on wind power plants.
Delivery of the wind turbines for both projects is scheduled for the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, and commissioning is expected during the second quarter of 2009.
Vestas said that the Dobrzyn and the Wronki wind power plants will annually save the environment from approximately 80,000 and 98,000 tons of CO2, respectively. The total production from the wind power plants will reportedly provide enough electricity to power approximately 50,000 Polish households.
Klaus Steen Mortensen, president of Vestas Northern Europe, said: We are very satisfied with these new orders from Vortex Energy that reinforce Vestas’s positive development in the Polish wind energy market, and we look forward to continuing strengthening our position in the market.
