REpower Systems SE and RWE Innogy have concluded a contract for the delivery of two REpower 6M wind turbines. The turbines, each with a rated power of 6.15 MW and a hub height of 114 metres, will be installed in the Westereems wind farm near Eemshaven in the Dutch province of Groningen.
As well as the delivery and construction of the wind turbines, the turnkey project also involves the manufacturing of the foundations. Completion is already planned for mid 2012. The two 6M turbines correspond to the type which RWE Innogy is shortly going to use in the offshore wind farm North Sea East. Installation of the wind farm Nordsee Ost, some 30 kilometres North of Helgoland, is to be started in spring 2012. In total, 48 turbines of the 6M type will be used there. REpower is currently working on the production of the wind turbines at the company’s offshore production location in Bremerhaven. Production is currently on schedule, the turbines are due to be delivered in the course of 2012.
