SWEDEN : Vestas received 36 MW order from Eolus Vind
Publish Date : 03-Oct-2011
Vestas has received a 36 MW order from Eolus Vind AB for delivery of 18 units of the V90-2.0 MW wind turbine. This order is the first call-off from the framework agreement of 180 MW with Eolus.
The first 18 turbines are being delivered and installed at seven different projects in the southern parts of Sweden in the localities of Skara, Kristianstad, Munkedal, Ulricehamn and Hallsberg. Commissioning of the wind turbines is expected to start in the second quarter of 2012.
Klaus Steen Mortensen, President of Vestas Northern Europe, emphasises the importance of building and maintaining long-term relationships with Eolus Vind AB as one of the key players in the Swedish market: “Our journey with Eolus is now continuing with this new framework agreement,” he says.
Eolus and Vestas have been business partners for over 20 years driving the development of wind power forward in Sweden.
“With this first order within the framework agreement, we would like to acknowledge our close cooperation with Vestas. Vestas’ organisation and project execution is of great importance to the success of our business,” says Gustaf Ekberg, CEO of Eolus Vind.
