Vestas has received a firm order from WindStrom Erneuerbare Energien for the Schacht Konrad II repowering project in Salzgitter, Lower Saxony, Germany.
The project is located in a former iron ore mining area that is intended to be reused for renewable energy production. The order consists of four V162-6.2 MW and three V162-5.6 MW wind turbines and will replace the legacy turbines currently powering the site. Upon completion, Vestas will service the turbines under a 20-years service agreement. Turbine delivery is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2025 with commissioning scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2025.
