Gamesa to provide 48MW wind turbines for China project

Gamesa will supply turbines for a proposed 48MW wind farm project being built by the Longyuan Group at Jiangkou, in China's Fujian Province.

The Spain-based company will begin delivering 24 sets of G87-2.0MW Class S and G90-2.0MW wind turbines from October 2012.

Gamesa said it has prepared the turbines in keeping with the Fujian coastal area and altitude to maximise performance.

The G87-2.0 MW Class S models have the potential to produce about 8% more energy compared to the former G80-2.0 MW Class I models.

Gamsea and Longyuan have jointly co-operated on a total of 1,728MW projects. Gamesa has installed close to 3,000 turbines at over 60 sites across China.

The Longyuan Group had 39 approved wind power projects, with capacity of 2,009MW, distributed in 17 provinces and autonomous regions, as of December 2011.
