Gamesa has has secured an order from a power utility for the supply of 57 of its G132-3.465 MW turbines for a 198MW wind farm in Mexico. This model delivers 50% and 30% more energy than the G114-2.0 MW and G114-2.5 MW respectively.
The new platform, unveiled one year ago, builds from the technology in the company's 2.0 MW and 2.5 MW platforms, by leveraging the same mechanical and electrical systems but boosting nominal capacity. The first prototype was installed at the R&D facility in Alaiz, Navarra at the end of the summer, while serial production is scheduled to begin in 2017.
