Gamesa to build a 40-MW wind farm in India for ReNew Power under a turnkey arrangement
Gamesa has announced plans to develop a 40 MW turnkey wind farm in India for ReNew Power, and Indian independent power producer (IPP).
Under the terms of the contract signed with ReNew Power, Gamesa will install 20 of its G97-2.0 MW class S turbines at the Lingsagur wind farm, located in the province of Karnataka. With a tower height of 104 metres, this new turbine variant, certified by TÜV NORD, is custom-designed for the low wind speed sites typical of India.
Given the fact that it is a turnkey contract, Gamesa will handle all of the infrastructure needed to install and operate the project and will also provide the long-term operations and maintenance (O&M) services. The wind farm's commissioning is scheduled for March 2016.
This new contract strengthens Gamesa's relationship with ReNew Power, with which it has already signed firm orders for the supply of 102.65 MW in the provinces of Karnataka and Maharaja.
