Vestas has received another order of 49 MW from Ningxia Hanas New Energy Company, who chose to partner with Vestas in their first endeavors into wind energy in April earlier this year.
The business of Ningxia Hanas New Energy Company is built on supply of natural gas and heating, and the company has therefore extensive experience with the energy business, where reliability is critical to their success.
CEO of Hanas New Energy Company, Mr Ma Fuqiang says: “Acquiring mature and reliable technological support is of utmost importance for us. Being the most experienced company in the industry, Vestas is an important partner and we’re very hopeful to have many more opportunities for collaboration with Vestas in the future.”
“The fact that the customer stresses the importance of mature and reliable technology, and that they have chosen us for exactly that reason, is an important acknowledgement,” says Jens Tommerup, President of Vestas China. “As the market gradually moves towards demanding more reliable and high quality products, we are, by virtue of our extensive industry experience, in a very strong position to successfully contribute to the business success of Hanas New Energy.”
The order consists of 25 units of the popular V90-1.8/2.0 MW turbine. This megawatt class model is one of the best performing turbines for medium- and low-wind sites with a long track record, and it is built on mature technology and reliable design.
The contract includes towers, delivery, transportation, installation and commissioning of the wind turbines, a VestasOnline® Business SCADA solution and a two-year service and maintenance agreement.
The site of the project is located in Huianbao, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and the turbines are scheduled to be delivered in the third quarter of 2010.
