The order consists of seven V162-6.2 MW wind turbines and includes the supply, delivery and commissioning of the wind turbines. Upon completion, Vestas will service the turbines under a 25-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement designed to ensure optimized performance of the assets.
“We are pleased to leverage our strong track record in successfully executing projects with SAB. This project is another great example of the collaboration between SAB and Vestas,” says Sulai Fahimi, Vice President of Sales for Central Europe at Vestas. “We would like to thank the entire SAB team for their trust in Vestas and our products and we look forward to the upcoming joint projects.”
“The Bockenem wind farm is the next project in our intensified collaboration with Vestas. The project is a very important milestone in our presence in Lower Saxony and emphasizes our commitment as a reliable partner for all local stakeholders involved,” explains Lars Niebuhr, one of the CEOs of SAB WindTeam.
Delivery of the wind turbines is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2024 and commissioning to be completed in the second quarter of 2025.
