РусскийVestas has received an order for 60 units of the V82-1.65 MW wind turbine for a wind power project located in Theni in the state of Tamil Nadu, South India.
The order has been placed by CLP, who is one of Vestas’ long-term global customers, with installations in both China and Australia. In India, CLP currently owns and operates 100 MW of wind power and has around 245 MW under construction in the states of Karnataka, Maharashtra and Gujarat. In addition, the company is operating a wholly owned gas-fired combined cycle power station with a capacity of 655 MW and is building a 1,320 MW domestic coal-fired power project at Jhajjar in Haryana, India.
The contract comprises supply and commissioning of the turbines, a VestasOnline® Business SCADA system as well as a 10-year service and maintenance agreement.

Wind Energy America has completed the commissioning of the first of two Gamesa G-87 2.0-megawatt (MW) wind turbines which is part of its wholly owned Zachary Ridge LLC (“ZR”), located on Buffalo Ridge in Osceola County, Iowa.
The company has been working with Outland Renewable Energy to retrofit and commission the turbines to achieve full commercial operation. Wind Energy America expects commissioning of the second G-87 turbine to be completed by March.
Energy produced by the project will be sold to Interstate Power and Light under a long-term power purchase agreement. The turbine has an 87 meter diameter rotor, a 78 meter tower and is capable of generating enough power (approximately 5 million kilowatt-hours annually) to power about 500 homes.
Within the scope of a large order, Mannheim-based MWM has shipped no less than 15 gas gensets with an output of 4 MWel each to Bangladesh. The project, which is unprecedented in the company's history, was started in spring of last year and is currently being installed at the destination. The buyer is a power plant of Precision Energy Ltd., a specially formed subsidiary of a leading group of companies in Bangladesh.
With its 15 large gas gensets, the natural gas-powered plant in Ashugong, Bangladesh, will generate a total of 60 MWel, all of which will be fed into the public grid. Bangladesh is with its population of about 150 million one of the most densely populated countries. Meanwhile, the country's daily demand for electricity has grown to 5,200 MW, compared to no more than 4,000 MW actually produced. Investments worth USD 15 billion are needed by 2020 in order to prevent the power industry from becoming an impediment to the country's development.
The 15 gas gensets, which have arrived in Bangladesh in the meantime, have covered a total distance of about 16,000 km (10,000 mi). About 40 low-bed trailers were needed for transporting this heavy equipment from the port in Chittagong to the destination.
The project was rolled out with Kaltimex Energy Pvt. Ltd. from Dhaka, Bangladesh, which has already successfully implemented numerous local projects with MWM and has established an efficient sales and customer service organization in recent years. According to the MWM headquarters in Mannheim, Germany, the commercial launch of the new power plant Ashugong is scheduled for the first half of this year.
Energy company E.ON has just received planning permission from South Lanarkshire Council for the development of a 29.9MW wind farm consisting of 13 turbines able to power around 20,000 homes. The development, located on land at Dungavel Hill, south of Strathaven, Scotland, should help offset around 40,000 tonnes of Carbon Dioxide per year.
The scheme will also bring contract opportunities to local employers in the region. During the construction phase there is expected to be between 50 and 60 contractors working on site.
The Scottish Government previously put in place renewable energy targets of 31 per cent by 2011 and 50 per cent by 2020.
E.ON has 20 operational wind farms throughout the UK. The company recently completed one of the UK’s largest dedicated biomass power stations in Lockerbie, Scotland.
NRG Energy Inc., based in Princeton, N.J., has begun commercial operations at the Langford Wind Power Project, a 150 MW wind farm 25 miles south of San Angelo, Texas.
The project's 100 General Electric 1.5 MW turbine generators are expected to generate more than 525,000 MWh of wind energy per year, which will be sold into the ERCOT system. Approximately 200 jobs were created during the nine-month construction period and 10 full-time professionals will be employed at the now-operational facility. Padoma Wind Power, an NRG subsidiary, developed the project, which is capable of powering more than 100,000 Texas homes.
