Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE) continues to grow its business in China with the first contract to supply the Siemens Gamesa 4.X platform in the country.
The company will install 42 units with unit rating reaching 4.8 MW, as well as provide operation and maintenance services for five years at a 200 MW project developed by local independent power producer Xinjiang TBEA Group.
This is the second order that SGRE has received from TBEA, strengthening the partnership between both companies. The 200 MW wind farm is located in the city of Changji, in the region of Xinjiang, northwest China. The Siemens Gamesa 4.X platform, with its 145 meters rotor variant, is a good fit for the project site conditions featuring medium wind, sandy and dusty weather, and low temperatures during wintertime. Commissioning is expected before the end of 2020.
