Vestas to supply turbines for 42 MW Cheongsong Myeonbong Mt Wind Power project in North Gyeongsang

Vestas has secured a V136-4.2 MW order in South Korea for the Cheongsong Myeonbong Mt Wind Power project with EPC contractor Kumho Industrial Co., Ltd.

The 42 MW order consists of ten V136-4.2 MW wind turbines at a hub height of 112 meters as well as a 20-year Active Output Management 4000 (AOM 4000) service agreement, designed to maximize uptime and ensure optimized performance of the project.

To optimize operation in the site’s specific wind conditions, the turbines will feature Vestas’ High Wind Operation (HWO), an intelligent control option that allows the turbines to continue operating beyond standard cut-out wind speeds. The result is improved output stability, energy production, and reliability, helping the project to deliver the maximum return on investment for the customer. Each turbine will be equipped with a full-scale converter, enhancing the wind park’s compliance with grid requirements.

The Cheongsong Myeonbong Mt Wind Power project is located in Cheongsong county, North Gyeongsang Province. Turbine installation expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2021.
