Siemens Gamesa to equip 81 MW Alajoki-Peuralinna wind project

Siemens Gamesa has signed an 81 MW deal with long-term customer Suomen Hyötytuuli Oy to supply its most powerful onshore wind turbine, the SG 5.8-155 model, for a wind farm in Finland.

In total, 14 turbines with a 155-meter rotor will be supplied to the Alajoki-Peuralinna site in central Finland. The turbine will be optimized to meet the site requirements, including high towers to capture better wind speeds and increase energy production. The turbines will also be equipped with a low-temperature package and Operation with Ice application to allow them to perform in any condition.

Commissioning of the wind farm is planned for 2022.
