Vestas to deliver turbines for 2nd phase of 500 MW wind farm in Ukraine

Vestas has secured an order for the second phase of the DTEK Tiligul project, a wind farm that totals 500 MW in capacity, from DTEK Renewables. This order, which covers the remaining 372 MW of the project, being developed as the second phase of the complex, adds to the 126 MW order which Vestas received in March 2021 for the first phase.

Vestas will also provide service for both phases of the DTEK Tiligul project through a long-term 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, providing power performance certainty and it's service expertise throughout the lifetime of the project.

Nils de Baar, President of Vestas Northern & Central Europe, said: "Securing the 372 MW in the second phase of the Tiligul project is an important step for Vestas to take in applying our EnVentus platform in Ukraine. Both phases of the Tiligul project are revolutionising onshore wind in Ukraine with the implementation of industry-leading technology through our EnVentus platform.”

For the second phase of the project, Vestas will be supplying 62 V162-6.0 MW turbines with a hub height of 125 metres. Full park commissioning is planned for the end of the third quarter of 2022.
