Vestas has received an order from JUWI GmbH for five wind projects in Germany totalling 63 MW. The order includes supply, installation, and commissioning of the turbines, as well as a 20-year active output management 4000 (AOM 4000) service agreement, designed to ensure optimised performance of the asset.
The order consists of the Windpark Olsberg Mannstein in North Rhine-Westphalia with seven V126-3.45 MW turbines, the Windpark Perl-expansion in Saarland with one V150-5.6 MW turbine, as well as the Windpark Lauda Heckfeld II in Baden-Wuerttemberg and Windpark Laudert III in Rhineland-Palatinate that both consist of one V162-5.6 MW turbine. Finally, the Windpark Jülich Güsten in North Rhine-Westphalia includes four V162-5.6 MW turbines.
“We are proud to yet again be trusted to deliver turbines to JUWI. The strong and trustful collaboration is highlighted by the parties signing five projects at once. I would like to thank JUWI for the continued confidence that they have placed in us,” said Jens Kück, Vice President Sales Central at Vestas. “These five projects are a testimonial of our shared vision for a sustainable future and our commitment to accelerate the German energy transition.”
Maximilian Nowak, Director Corporate Supply Chain at JUWI, added: “We are very pleased that we have been able to contract with the European market leader and long-term partner for our projects, especially under currently challenging circumstances. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the entire Vestas and JUWI-teams involved in the transaction.”
Installation of the first turbine is scheduled to begin in 1Q24, with commissioning of all turbines expected by the end of 4Q24.
