Vestas has secured an order for several wind projects in Norway that will feature different 4 MW platform turbine variants from Vestas’ product portfolio.

Utilising the 4 MW platform’s flexibility, the turbines will ensure a high capacity factor and maximise energy production in a tailormade configuration based on the sites’ specific wind conditions.

“The order affirms the competitiveness of Vestas’ wind power solutions and that wind power provides an attractive long-term energy investment that goes well beyond its climate and sustainability benefits”, says Nils de Baar, President North at Vestas North and Central Europe. “We are very proud that our innovative technology will be able to create maximum value for our customer”.

The wind projects will feature a VestasOnline® Business SCADA solution lowering turbine downtime to optimize the energy output.
