Spanish wind turbine manufacturer Siemens Gamesa has secured an order from Singapore-based company Vena Energy to deliver wind turbines for a 133MW wind project in Karnataka, India.
Under the terms of the deal, Siemens Gamesa will supply 37 of its 3.X platform turbines, called SG 3.6-145, for the project.
Installation works at the site are expected to start next year, with the turbines to be manufactured at Siemens Gamesa’s facilities in India.
Siemens Gamesa and Vena Energy began their partnership in 2015 with a 154MW wind farm located in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
Since then, Vena Energy has added more than 300MW of capacity in India across wind facilities located in various states, including Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat.
This deal has increased the company’s portfolio with Siemens Gamesa in India to nearly 600MW.
