Vestas has secured an order for a 29 MW wind project from the Vietnamese developer, Soc Trang Energy Joint Stock Company, a subsidiary of Xuan Cau Company Limited.
Located in Soc Trang, a province in the Mekong Delta of southern Vietnam, the Soc Trang 7 wind project will feature seven V150-4.2 MW turbines with customized towers placed on reinforced onshore foundations raised above sea level in the shallow near-shore waters.
Vestas will work closely with the customer to handle the complexity of planning and executing the intertidal project and will supervise the installation of the turbines, strategically placed to exploit the full potential of the Mekong Delta region’s favorable wind conditions.
The order also includes a 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, designed to maximize energy production for the site.
The project is planned to achieve commissioning in the third quarter of 2021.
