Vestas has received its first Australian order for the largest turbine in its product line, the V150-4.2 MW, ordered by long-term customer Tilt Renewables for the 336 MW Dundonnell Wind Farm.
Located 23 km north-east of Mortlake in the Western District of Victoria, Dundonnell Wind Farm will feature 80 Vestas V150-4.2 MW turbines with a 114-meter hub height tower design to maximize performance under the site’s specific wind conditions. Towers will be partially sourced from local Victorian suppliers.
The contract includes the supply, installation, and commissioning of the wind turbines, electrical balance of plant infrastructure, as well as a minimum 15-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, designed to maximize energy production of both the wind turbine and Balance of Plant assets.
Commercial operations at Dundonnell Wind Farm are scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2020.
