Both wind farms will see the introduction of the new Senvion 3.6M140 turbine into the Australian market.
Compared to its predecessor, the energy yield has been increased by up to 20 per cent at wind speeds of 7.5 m/s, and the lifetime has been extended by 25 per cent from 20 to 25 years.
"We are particularly happy to announce this contract with Nexif Energy, only a short time after being selected as single preferred supplier," said Senvion CEO Jürgen Geissinger.
"This highlights the strong product fit Senvion can provide for Australian projects. We are very much looking forward to further building on our partnership with Nexif Energy," he said.
Improvements to the blades have resulted in lower sound in all operating modes. Combined, the projects will deliver over 300 MW of clean, renewable energy to Australian consumers.
Since commencing operations in Australia in 2002, Senvion has installed 218 wind turbines from across the Senvion two megawatt series with a cumulated rated power of over 440 MW in Australia. Senvion Australia Pty. Ltd. is the regional subsidiary providing Senvion wind turbine technology and solutions across Australia, New Zealand and the Southern Pacific region.
