Wind Energy – Wind Turbines
Vestas has secured a firm order for 68 V236-15.0 MW wind turbines for Vattenfall’s Nordlicht 1 offshore wind project.
The agreement is for the supply, installation, and commissioning of the turbines. The scope of the contract includes a comprehensive 5-year service and warranty agreement followed by a 25-year operational support agreement.
The order for Nordlicht 1 totals 1,020 MW, with a grid connection capacity of 980 MW and an excess capacity of 40 MW to use the connection capacity as efficiently as possible.
“Germany’s energy transition is at a crossroads — balancing security, affordability, and sustainability. Together with Vattenfall we are not just witnessing the change; we are driving the solutions that make it reliable, resilient, and accessible for all,” says Nils de Baar, President Vestas Northern & Central Europe.
“We are delighted to deploy the V236-15.0 MW wind turbines to Nordlicht 1, and to additionally deliver low-emission steel for the project. I would like to thank Vattenfall for the excellent collaboration and partnership throughout the project stages.”
