Senvion, a leading global manufacturer of wind turbines, has
concluded its first contract in Norway for the supply of 33 Senvion
3.4M114 turbines to Egersund wind farm. The project with Norsk Vind
Egersund AS will have a total rated output of 112.2 megawatts (MW)
and will produce enough green energy to power more than 73,000
Norwegian households which equals nearly half of the surrounding
Norwegian province of Rogaland. The supply contract was confirmed
in June this year and the final contract is now effective.
The wind farm was acquired by LUXCARA, one of Europe´s leading
asset managers for renewable energy investments. Egersund will be
part of the portfolio of the fund FLAVEO Infrastructure Europe SCS
SICAV-FIS – Solar and Wind, which was set up for institutional
investors.
Jürgen Geissinger, CEO of Senvion, said: “The contract
for Egersund wind farm is a milestone which reflects the clear
global growth strategy of Senvion and its potential to enter new
markets with innovative and optimally adapted products.” In 2016,
six years after introducing the first 3.XM turbine to the market,
Senvion has a track record of 765 Senvion 3.XM wind energy turbines
which amounts to 2.5 gigawatts installed of this product type
alone.
The first turbine installations at Egersund are scheduled for Q2
2017, and commissioning is expected to take place in Q2 and Q3
2017. Located on the North Sea coast of Norway, between
Kristiansand and Stavanger, the turbines will be constructed at a
hub height of 93 meters. The Senvion 3.4M114 has been optimized for
particularly windy locations and is therefore the ideal turbine for
the high wind conditions on the south-western coast of Norway. A
Senvion service center in Egersund will be responsible for turbine
maintenance for 15 years.
The Senvion Scandinavia AB subsidiary began operating in Sweden
in 2010. Since then, Senvion has installed turbines from across the
3.XM and MM series in locations ranging from the southern coast to
the very north of the country. With Norway, Senvion is entering its
second Scandinavian market.
