Vestas to supply Powerica’s new Gujarat wind farm

Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas has landed a contract from Powerica to supply 26 units for a 46.8MW facility for its Vandiya Power Wind Farm project in Gujarat, in the west of India.

The contract is for Vensta's V100-1.8MW turbine, which is designed for high productivity from low wind sites common in India, and includes supply and installation as well as a ten-year service and maintenance agreement.

Powerica already operates two other wind farms - in Gujarat and Tamilnadu - that use Vestas V82-1.65MW turbines. With the completion of the Vandiya project Powerica will have about 100MW of installed wind capacity.
