Vestas’ progress in India continues with a 100 MW turnkey order.

Leveraging Vestas’ extensive experience from more than 100 turnkey projects across the globe, the order includes delivery, installation, and commissioning of 50 V110-2.0 MW turbines as well as the project’s civil and electrical works. The order follows the inauguration of Vestas’ blades factory in Gujarat and the 54 MW Periyapatti order earlier this year, adding to Vestas’ continued progress in India.

The order also includes a 10-year Active Output Management 4000 (AOM4000) service contract and VestasOnline® Business, its unique SCADA system for data-driven monitoring and preventive maintenance.

Turbine delivery is expected to start in late 2017, with commissioning by first half 2018.

At the customer’s request, the customer and project names have not been disclosed at this time.
