Gamesa will supply, transport, install and commission 15 G114-2.0 MW turbines at the Santana 1 wind farm, 15 turbines of the same make at the Calango 6 facility and another 12 at the Santana 2 complex.
The 42 turbines, which will be made at Gamesa's factory in Camaçari (Brazil), are due for delivery during the third quarter of 2016, while the wind farms are slated for commissioning the following quarter.
The G114-2.0 MW is a new turbine model designed to yield more power at lower cost at low and medium wind speed sites, which is particularly suitable for the high-wind and low-turbulence conditions encountered in Brazil.
The order backlog for this product stands at over 800 MW to date.
