Wind turbines are slated to be commissioned in late 2015 and are expected to significantly contribute to helping the country achieve its clean energy goals. Upon completion of the 59.4 MW wind farm, it will produce around 135,000 megawatt hours of clean renewable energy annually.
Vestas will be supplying wind turbines to wind farm projects in South Korea and in the Philippines.
For the project in South Korea, Vestas will be supplying GS Yeongyang Windpower’s Yeong Yang Wind Farm with 18 V112-3.3 MW turbines. In addition to supplying the turbines, Vestas will also provide a 10-year full-scope service agreement.
