Vestas receives order for 155-megawatt wind park in Argentina

ReNews.biz:

Vestas has received a firm order from YPF Luz for the supply and installation of 25 EnVentus wind turbines for the 155MW General Levalle wind park in the province of Córdoba, Argentina.

Using the V162-6.2MW models, this will be the first project in Argentina to feature machines from Vestas’ EnVentus platform.

Upon completion, Vestas will also deliver a 25-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement.

This agreement will optimise energy production while also providing long-term business case certainty, Vestas said. 

Martín Mandarano, chief executive of YPF Luz, said: "YPF Luz aims to lead the energy transition in Argentina, based on innovation and operational excellence.

"Today, we are building our fourth wind farm with a capacity of 155MW and are proud to feature Vestas' EnVentus technology."

"We are very proud to introduce turbines from the EnVentus platform to the Argentinean market with this project.

"This reaffirms our commitment to work together with YPF Luz to transform Argentina's energy matrix like we did for YPF Luz's Manantiales Behr wind farm, where we introduced the 4MW platform in Argentina.
