Vestas scores 55MW turbine order in Japan
Company will deliver 13 V117-4.2MW turbines in the fourth quarter of next year
Vestas has secured a 55MW order for turbines for a wind farm in Japan.
RENOVA placed the order for 13 Vestas V117-4.2MW machines for the Reihoku Amakusa project in Kumamoto prefecture.
Delivery of the units will begin in the fourth quarter of 2024, with commissioning scheduled for completion in 2026.
The turbines will be installed with a high-tower solution with 112-metre hub heights to unlock new wind resources at higher and more consistent speeds.
Vestas will service for machines for 20 years.
“We are delighted to once again partner with RENOVA. This will be our first collaboration in Japan, building upon the success of our previous three projects in Vietnam,” said Vestas Asia Pacific president Purvin Patel.
“We remain committed to contribute to Japan’s carbon neutrality goal, through our industry-leading wind energy solutions and strong partnership with our customers,” Patel added.
