Siemens Gamesa marks 118-MW debut order for its new 3.3-MW platform in Europe

By Michelle Froese | July 17, 2017

Siemens Gamesa has landed its maiden order from the Turkish investor Sancak Enerji for the supply of 118 MW at two wind farms in the region of Konya. Moreover, it marks the first order for the supply of turbines from the 3.3-MW platform in Europe. This new platform is designed to minimize the cost of energy across a wide variety of sites.

The G132-3.3 MW guarantees maximum output at medium and medium-low wind speed sites.

Siemens Gamesa will supply 20 of its G132-3.3 MW turbines (66 MW) at the Baglar wind farm and another 16 turbines (52 MW) of the same make at the Ardicli facility. Delivery of the turbines is scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2018, with the facilities slated for commissioning in 2019.

The company will also provide both facilities’ operation and maintenance services for five years.

The G132-3.3 MW comes in four different tower heights, ranging from 84 to 134 m, so that it can be tailored for each region’s specific requirements and wind ranges.

The nacelles for these 36 turbines will be assembled at Siemens Gamesa’s factory in Ágreda (Soria, Spain) and the towers and blades will be made in Turkey using local suppliers, thereby accomplishing a high level of local content at both projects.

Siemens Gamesa has installed over 550 MW of its turbines in Turkey since entering this market for the first time in 2010.
