AC Energy Corporation, a unit of Ayala Group, and the BIM Group have started the commercial operations of the 88 MW Ninh Thuan wind farm project in Vietnam.
Located in South Central Vietnam, the US$155 million wind farm features 22 units of GE Renewable Energy’s Cypress turbines. It is expected to produce 327 GWh per year, enough to power around 50,000 homes annually with renewable energy. The project will help to avoid 298,551 tonnes of CO2 per year.
This is the second joint project of ACEN and the BIM Group following the 405 MW Ninh Thuan solar farm. Inaugurated in 2019, the solar farm reached a milestone with a 1 billion KWhr output. The Ninh Thuan Solar and Ninh Thuan Wind projects are expected to generate around 900 million kWh of renewable energy per year.
