The first of the 35 units of the SG 5.8-155 wind turbine, all with flexible power rating operating at 6.6MW, will be installed in the second quarter of 2021 in the Skaftåsen project in Sweden.
The 231MW order marks the debut of the Siemens Gamesa 5.X platform. The turbines will be delivered in the cold climate version of the platform, capable of withstanding -40°C and operating at temperatures as low as -30°C. The project was developed by Arise and the project has been acquired by funds managed by Foresight, a UK-based renewable energy infrastructure investor. The order includes a 30-year full-service agreement.
