All turbines for the 256 MW Roan wind farm in Norway are already installed. A total of 71 Vestas machines has been erected at the project’s site and most of the plant’s mechanical components are already in place. The wind farm is planned to be commissioned by the end of this year.
Commercial operations at the plant are expected to begin before Christmas, with grid-connection planned for the fourth quarter. The wind park, which has already produced about 3.4 GWh of electricity during the installation phase, is expected to produce around 900 GWh per year.
