Alstom has received a contract from PGE Energia Odnawialna to supply ECO110 wind turbines for the 90MW Lotnisko wind farm.
Under the €80m contract, Alstom will provide 30 ECO110 wind turbines for the wind farm based in Kopaniewo, Poland.
The contract scope also includes project management, supply, erection and commissioning of 30 Alstom ECO110 3MW wind turbines, which feature a 110m diameter rotor, a 90m-high steel tower, and a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) remote control system.
"We are convinced that Alstom competences in Poland in the conventional energy sector, combined with the proven technology represented by ECO110 turbines, will translate into an efficient execution of the contract and guarantee Alstom a successful debut on the Polish wind market," PGE Energia Odnawialna investments department director, Krzysztof Muller said.
Designed to reduce installation, operation and maintenance costs, the ECO 110 minimises noise emission and can produce enough energy for 2,000 households while avoiding the production of 7,000t a year of CO2.
In addition, Alstom will provide turbines operation and maintenance for two years.
