Turbine supply agreement signed with Gamesa SPA for three G80 2MW turbines

Renewable Energy Generation Limited ("REG") (AIM: WIND), the UK renewable energy group, announces that it has signed a turbine supply agreement with Gamesa SPA for three 2MW G80 turbines for a new project at Burnthouse Farm in Cambridgeshire. This project was developed under an agreement between REG and a development partner and received planning permission in the summer of 2011. However, the project was only freed to enter construction when a key aviation planning condition was discharged earlier this year.

The cost of Burnthouse Farm will be in line with the construction of REG's recent projects and will be wholly financed from REG's existing cash resources. It will have an annual energy production of approximately 14GWh per annum and is expected to be operational midway through 2013.

Andrew Whalley, Chief Executive Officer of REG, said:

"We have enjoyed a good relationship with our development partner and it is thus excellent news that we are now moving Burnthouse Farm into construction. This is our first purchase of Gamesa G80 turbines which have a proven track record of success around the world. We hope that Burnthouse Farm will be the first of a number of REG projects to move into construction during the next twelve months, helping the UK move towards meeting its long term emissions targets".
