ABO Wind has been commissioned by Luxcara with the technical operational management of 38 Vestas V150 wind turbines in Finland. 

The operational management contract, which has a term of at least five years, covers three wind farms developed by ABO Wind and sold to Luxcara. The 24 turbines in Välikangas are expected to be connected to the grid this summer, while the 7 wind turbines each in Sievi and Pihtipudas are expected to follow at the end of 2021.

Together, the three wind farms have a capacity of more than 160 megawatts. This means that around 160,000 households can be provided with electricity, and more than 360,000 tonnes of CO2 can be saved annually.
