GE General Electric has been commissioned to provide 33 units of its 5.3 MW Cypress platform turbines for the 175 MW Bjorkvattnet wind project that will be developed north of Stockholm, Sweden.
The project is developed by Vindparken and WindSpace, with support from GE Renewable Energy. The wind farm is owned by French infrastructure investor InfraVia Capital Partners.
Once the project is operational, it can generate enough electricity to meet the demand of 175,000 local homes.
The deal with General Electric includes a 25-year full services agreement.
The project is expected to reach commercial operations by the end of 2020.
