GE Renewable Energy has secured a 27MW turbine deal in Vietnam for the Phuoc Minh wind farm in the Ninh Thuan region of the country.
The contract is for the supply of eight 3MW-137 machines.
A consortium of PowerChina Huadong Engineering Corporation, Henste Engineering and IPC Group will provide full engineering, procurement and construction services for the project.
The wind farm is expected to contribute in excess of 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity a year to the national grid once the project is fully operational by third quarter of 2021.
“With a strong presence in Vietnam since 1993, the US’s large industrial company GE has participated in power and energy projects in our country.
“We are confident that GE will continue playing an important role in the Vietnam’s renewable energy development.
“We are happy to support GE in the Phuoc Minh wind power project, which is a stepping-stone for new collaborations between Vietin Bank Nam Thang Long and GE in the future.”
