Danish Vestas received a 106-megawatt wind turbine order from Argentina, the company said on Friday.
The order was for two wind parks located near Bahia Blanca city in the province of Buenos Aires, Vestas said.
Turbine delivery is planned for the last quarter of 2018, while commissioning is expected in the first quarter of 2019.
"Last year, Vestas signed contracts for almost 600 megawatts in Argentina and with this new order, we have close to 1 gigawatt of wind capacity either installed or under construction in the country. Our strong order intake and the recent announcement of our assembly facility in Argentina emphasize our commitment and support to the country’s ambitious renewable energy targets," said Andres Gismondi, sales director of Vestas Argentina.
