“Vestas’ technology delivers a robust business case for the competitive U.K. electricity market. We look forward to the execution phase where we will continue our strong construction track record. We thank Invenergy for trusting Vestas with their largest wind park to date in the U.K.”

“We are excited to be utilizing state-of-the-art Vestas turbines at the Pencloe Wind Energy Centre, which will be the largest Invenergy-developed project in the United Kingdom,” said Stuart Winter, vice president and country manager at Invenergy. “This project not only represents our mission to accelerate cleaner, more reliable and affordable energy, but also underscores our dedication to fostering positive community relationships and ensuring local economies benefit from our projects.”

Turbine delivery is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2025 with the project expected to be fully operational in early 2026.
