Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE) has won a contract to supply its SG 14-222 direct drive offshore wind turbine for the 2,640MW Coast Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) commercial project.
Developed by Dominion Energy, the offshore wind farm will be built in the US state of Virginia and will provide enough energy to power 650,000 homes, offsetting 3.7 million tonnes of CO2.
