Naturgy Group,
Vestas has secured a 97 MW deal for the
Hawkesdale Wind Farm in Victoria, Australia. The project will feature 23 V136-4.2 MW wind turbines which Vestas will supply and install.
Upon completion, Vestas will also deliver a 15-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement. With an energy-based availability guarantee, the service agreement will maximise the energy production of the fleet and provide Global Power Generation (Naturgy Group) with long-term business case certainty.
The deal follows Vestas’ recent announcement of the second stage of the Berrybank wind project and the Ryan Corner wind project, two new Victorian wind parks to be developed with Global Power Generation. Together, the three projects will export a total of 425 MW of clean energy to the Australian grid.

Finnish developer Ilmatar Energy has placed an order with Vestas for 74 MW for the Voimamylly and Rasakangas wind projects, set to be located in southwest and central Finland.
Comprised of six V150-4.2 MW turbines from Vestas’ 4 MW platform, the Voimamylly wind project will be optimised for 4.3 MW, with 135 m towers. Combined with a 30-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, the customised site layout will ensure optimised energy production throughout the lifetime of the project.
The Rasakangas wind project features eight V162-6.0 MW turbines from the recently upgraded EnVentus platform, in combination with 129 m towers and a 30-year AOM 5000 service agreement. The tailored solution, leveraging the upgraded rating of the EnVentus platform, will ensure a professional level of energy production combined with a high capacity factor at low to medium wind sites. The project configuration will also ensure that energy costs are minimised.
