Vestas has been commissioned to supply wind turbines for a 67 MW wind project in Vietnam. 

Vestas will supply, transport, install and commission a total of 16 V150-4.2 MW wind turbines delivered in different power ratings to optimize the projects’ energy output. The customized tower solution takes the turbines to 162m hub heights and opens up new wind resources by allowing access to higher and more consistent wind speeds.

Located in a wetland area of the Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam and surrounded by aquaculture shrimp farms, the sites’ limited space and complex infrastructure require a specific transportation and installation solution to construct the projects. To successfully execute the projects, Vestas has developed a solution using a specialized tower crane to significantly reduce the hardstand space necessary to erect the turbines.

The order also includes a 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, designed to maximize energy production for both sites.
