Earlier this year, Vestas and TPI announced an agreement for V150-4.2 MW turbine blades primarily for Asian markets.
TPI Composites, a global independent manufacturer of composite wind blades, announced that Vestas Wind Systems will add two more V136 blade manufacturing lines under an existing multi-year supply agreement.
According to the agreement, TPI will produce blades from six lines for Vestas at TPI’s new manufacturing hub in Matamoros, Mexico. Production from this facility will begin this quarter.
“We are pleased that Vestas has executed its option to add two more production lines with TPI in Mexico for its V136 wind turbine,” said Steve Lockard, President and CEO of TPI Composites.
TPI has produced wind blades in Mexico since 2002, and currently operates three wind blade facilities in Ciudad Juarez.
