Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE) has secured an order to supply wind turbines for the Stavro project in Sweden. The 62 turbines with a 4.1MW rating built by SGRE will power Google’s data center, as well as Holmen’s local paper and board business.
Stavro is located in the northern part of Sweden, northwest of Umeå, and divided into two sub-sites: Blodrotberget, with 40 turbines, and Blackfjället, with 22 turbines, for a total installed capacity of 254MW. Commissioning of the wind farm is scheduled for the end of 2021 and the project will be covered by a 30-year service agreement also delivered by SGRE. The grid connection, comprised of engineering, civil works, installation and commissioning of the two 150/33 kV sub-sites, will be provided by Siemens Gas and Power.
The project is realised by German Asset Manager Prime Capital on behalf of an international consortium comprising Korean institutional investors, German Pension Fund Nordrheinische Ärzteversorgung and Siemens Financial Services.
