Vestas Wind Systems received an order for 108 MW from S.C. Crucea Wind Farm S.R.L. / STEAG for the Crucea North wind power plant, located in the Constanta county in the province of Dobrogea in Romania.
The order includes supply, installation and commissioning of the turbines, along with a VestasOnline Business SCADA solution as well as a 10-year full-scope service agreement (AOM 4000). Delivery is planned to start in April 2014 and commissioning is expected to be completed by December 2014.
The Crucea North wind power plant is one of the largest in Romania and represents a step forward in the development of Vestas’ relationship with one of the key players in wind energy in Europe.
The wind project totalling 108MW will be a key contributor to Romania’s ambitious targets as detailed in its National Renewable Energy Action Plan. The 36 V112.3.0 MW wind turbines will produce more than 300 GWh per year, which corresponds to an annual saving of almost 124,000 tons of CO2 emissions. Furthermore, it will provide enough electricity to cover the residential electricity consumption of more than 550,000 persons in Romania.
