15 April 2008 - Vestas has received an order for 34 units of its V90-3.0 MW wind turbine for the Toutiço project, located in the district of Coimbra in the central part of Portugal.
The order has been placed by Enersis SGPS, S.A., one of Europe's largest independent renewable energy companies. Enersis is owned by Babcock & Brown, a global investment and advisory firm.
The contract consists of supply, installation and commissioning of the wind turbines, as well as five-year service agreement.
The wind power plant is estimated to produce 264 GWh per year, which will save approximately 164 000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, and will cover the yearly electricity consumption of more than 100 000 households.
Delivery of the wind power plant is expected to start during the autumn of 2008 and will be completed during the autumn of 2009.
This order represents the fourth V90-3.0 MW project that Vestas has had with Enersis in Portugal.
By the end of December 2007, Vestas had installed a total of 123 units of the V90-3.0 MW wind turbine in Portugal and had a cumulative installed wind capacity in the country of 498 MW.
