Gamesa has received an order from developers Mexico Power Group and First Reserve for the turnkey construction of La Bufa, a 130MW wind farm in Mexico, located in the state of Zacatecas, in Central Mexico.
The company will install 65 of its G114-2.0 MW turbines. Given the fact that it is a turnkey contract, Gamesa will handle all of the infrastructure needed to install and operate the project. The turbines are slated for delivery in 2016, with commissioning to be completed the same year. The agreement also encompasses the provision of the related operation and maintenance services over the long term. The power generated by the wind farm will be supplied exclusively to Volkswagen’s factories in the cities of Puebla and Silao.
