Large Vestas order for the French market

24 August 2006 - Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas has received an order for a total of 33 units of the V90-2.0 MW wind turbine for four wind power projects in France.

The order has been placed by Eole RES, the French subsidiary of Renewable Energy
Systems. The order comprises supply and commissioning of the turbines as well as Vestas Online monitoring system.

Delivery of the turbines will begin in the spring of 2007, and commissioning of the wind power plants is planned to take place during the autumn of 2007. The four projects are all located in the eastern part of France, in the departments of Meuse and Doubs.

"We are very pleased with this new order for MW turbines for France. This wind turbine has shown to be very well adapted to the local wind regime and pricing conditions", says Ebbe Funk, President of Vestas Mediterranean A/S and continues: "The new tariff conditions signed by the French Government and the new national target for wind energy of 13 500 MW installed by 2010 as announced by the French Government in July are setting grounds for a strong development on the French market."
