Gamesa, a global technology leader in the wind energy industry, signed two firm orders to supply 290MW in North America: 100MW in Mexico and 190MW in the United States.
In United States, Gamesa reached an agreement with EDP Renováveis (EDPR) for the supply of 95 Gamesa’s G114-2.0MW turbines to the Waverly wind farm in Coffey County, Kansas. The project is part of the framework agreement reached between both companies for the supply of up to 450MW in the U.S. through 2016. The turbines are slated for delivery in the third quarter of 2015 and the project is expected to be fully commissioned by the end of the year. These 95 turbines will incorporate Gamesa’s MaxPower package of hardware and software modifications that boost the power output of the turbines from 2.0MW up to 2.1MW.
In Mexico, Gamesa signed a new contract for the supply of 100MW of its turbines to a big utility. Under the terms of the contract, Gamesa will supply and install 50 G97-2.0MW turbines at a wind farm located in central Mexico. The wind turbines are scheduled for delivery during the first quarter of 2015 and the wind farm is expected to be commissioned during the last.
