Vestas intends to deliver the turbines in the second quarter of 2021 and plans to commission them for the third quarter the same year.

EPV Energia Tuulivoima managing director Frans Liski said: “EPV’s wind power development has always been based on a long-term viewpoint with a market-driven approach. We trust in Vestas’ strong experience and track record operating in a merchant environment.”

This is not the first order in Finland that Vestas has taken this year. In May, it secured an order from Valorem to deliver wind turbines for the Saunamaa and Suolakangas projects in southern Finland.
