Australian-based Palisade Investment Partners Limited (Palisade) has placed a 112MW turnkey order with Vestas for the Granville Harbour Wind Farm in Tasmania, Australia.
The order includes civil and electrical works, supply and commissioning of 31 V126-3.6MW turbines as well as a 25-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement. With its 137-meter-tall towers, the project will host the tallest turbines in Tasmania. The project was initially developed by Westcoast Wind, who undertook long-term wind monitoring at the Granville Harbour site and secured necessary local, state and federal planning approvals. Palisade acquired 100 percent of Westcoast Wind in February 2018.
