Gamesa has secured the first order for its G128-5.0 MW turbine in the Latin American market. The company has been contracted by Transantartic Energia and Chile's Bosques de Chiloe to build the San Pedro II wind farm on the Chilean island of Chiloé, under a turnkey arrangement.
The facility will be equipped with 13 (65MW) of its G128-5.0MW turbines. Gamesa will handle all of the steps needed to develop the facility, from the civil works and electrical installation to the transportation, installation and commissioning of the turbines. The turbines are slated for delivery during the second quarter of 2016 and the wind farm is expected to be commissioned during the early months of 2017.
