0

Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE) has been awarded another order by EDF Renewables to supply 30 SG 4.5-145 and 36 SG 2.7-129 wind turbines for the 232 MW Milligan project, located in Milligan County, Neb.

The contract also includes a service and maintenance agreement. Project completion is expected for the end of 2020.

“EDF Renewables is a very strong partner for us, and we are glad to be working with them on a number of projects like Milligan and the recently announced Coyote and Oso Grande wind projects,” says José Antonio Miranda, CEO of onshore Americas at SGRE.


“The Milligan project marks the third order for EDF Renewables North America to deploy the SG 4.5-145 in 2020,” adds Art Del Rio, vice president of wind technology strategy at EDF Renewables North America.

The SG 4.5-145 offers a power rating from 4.2 MW to 4.8 MW, depending on site conditions, and has a rotor diameter of 145 meters. It is optimized for medium-wind onshore locations to maximize energy production with low noise levels.

To date, Siemens Gamesa has installed over 10,000 wind turbines in the U.S., totaling nearly 20 GW of installed capacity.

This project marks 1 GW of SG 4.5-145 wind turbines sold worldwide, notes SGRE.
