Vestas has received a 409 MW order from the joint venture between Votorantim Energia and the Canadian fund CPP Investments for the projects Ventos do Piauí II and Ventos do Piauí III, in Serra do Inácio, in the state of Piauí, in Brazil.

The contract includes the supply and commissioning of V150-4.2 MW wind turbines, as well as a 20-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreements, designed to ensure optimised performance for the lifetime of the project.

Recently, Vestas announced it had surpassed 10 GW in firm order intake of V150-4.2 MW turbines globally and with this order Vestas has secured almost 3,5 GW of orders for the turbine variant in Brazil, underlining the V150-4.2 MW’s excellent fit with the country’s wind conditions.

Turbine delivery will begin in the second half of 2021 with commissioning scheduled for 2022.
