Renewable energy company ENHOL has placed a 51 MW order for the Cascante wind park, to be located in Navarra, Spain. The contract includes the supply and installation of eight V162-6.2 MW wind turbines delivered in 6.4 MW power mode, as well as a 20-year Active Output Maintenance (AOM) 5000 service agreement.
"We would like to thank our long-term customer ENHOL for their trust in Vestas' latest technology. We are also glad to see how our EnVentus platform is gaining traction in Spain. We are convinced our latest and more powerful platform will make a strong contribution to Spain's energy transition over the coming years", says Vestas Head of Sales Mediterranean, Africa & Middle East, Agustín Sánchez Tembleque.
Turbine delivery is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2024, while commissioning is planned for the first half of 2025.
Upon commissioning, the wind farm will prevent 23,000 tonnes of CO2 from being emitted into the atmosphere per year. This is equivalent to removing 15,500 European passenger cars from the road every year.*
Vestas has installed over 5.2 GW of wind energy across more than 140 wind parks in Spain since installing the first turbine in 1991.
