Vestas wrote in a press release this morning that it has received an order for 250 MW for the Cedar Point Wind project in Colorado, USA.
The order was received from Renewable Energy Systems which at the end of March told the news agency Direkt that it had signed a contract with the Danish wind turbine producer.
But Vestas only announces orders which are firm and unconditional, and this was probably the case after the Canadian Enbridge yesterday announced an investment of DKK 3 billion in the project in question.
The contract includes delivery of 139 V90-1.8 MW turbines. The construction of the wind turbine farm is underway with commercial operation expected in 2011. Once completed, Cedar Point Wind will be the second largest wind project in Colorado.
»Cedar Point Wind will benefit Colorado in two ways – by supplying clean energy to Colorado homes under a 20-year power purchase agreement with Public Service Company of Colorado and by providing employment in the form of up to 200 new construction jobs with more jobs to follow once construction is complete,« said Martha Wyrsch, President of Vestas Americas, and added:
»We are extremely pleased tro work with Public Service Company of Colorado, PSCo, an Xcel Energy Company, to deliver turbines made from our factories in Windsor, Brighton and Pueblo, Colorado.« Direkt/BNS
