Vestas has gotten a 151 MW order from Pattern Energy Group LP (Pattern Energy). The order will enable Vestas to power the Lanfine wind farm in Alberta, Canada and the order consists of 35 V150-4.2 MW turbines, delivered in 4.3 MW operating mode.
While talking about the development, Laura Beane, President of Vestas North America said: “Vestas is pleased to grow our partnership with Pattern Energy, one of Canada’s largest wind power operators, as it expands its portfolio with this new project in Alberta.
“By utilising the proven V150 technology, this project will help contribute to Canada’s target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40 – 45% by 2030.”
Mike Garland, Chief Executive Officer of Pattern Energy said: “By utilising the Vestas V150, a quiet and powerful turbine, we are able to reduce the footprint of the Lanfine wind project while maintaining its output,”
“The addition of Lanfine Wind will further expand our Canadian presence, which is growing to a total of 10 wind power facilities across five provinces.”
The 151 MW order includes supply and commissioning of the turbines, and a multi-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, put in place to ensure optimised performance of the asset. Turbine delivery will commence in the 2nd quarter of 2022, with commissioning scheduled for the 4th quarter of 2022.
