Vestas to bring turbines for 319-MW wind project in Mexico

Denmark’s Vestas Wind Systems A/S (CPH:VWS) said on Thursday that it has received an order to supply its turbines for a 319-MW wind farm project located in the state of Baja California, Mexico.

Sempra Infrastructure, a unit of US utility Sempra (NYSE:SRE), ordered Vestas turbines for its Cimarron wind power development in the municipality of Tecate. Cimarron is the third phase of the Energia Sierra Juarez Wind Complex, which is set to have a total installed capacity of 582 MW.

The Danish manufacturer will supply and install 46 units of its V163-4.5 MW turbines and 18 pieces of the V162-6.2 MW model under this contract. A ten-year service agreement (AOM 5000) for the turbines upon their installation is included in the arrangement with the customer.

Vestas plans to deliver the machines in the fourth quarter of 2024. Commissioning is expected to take place in the fourth quarter of 2025.
