DENVER BUSINESS JOURNAL - Vestas Wind Systems, which has four manufacturing plants in Colorado, has reached another milestone for wind orders so far this year.
Through the end of November, the global manufacturer based in Denmark had announced orders for 7,282 megawatts worth of wind turbines — a feat reached with the help of more than 400 megawatts worth of wind turbines for U.S. customers announced in November.
On Monday, Vestas announced it had finalized an order with EDF Renewable Energy for 201 megawatts worth of wind turbines.
The order from EDF, which is the North American renewable energy arm of French power company Electricite de France SA, called for Vestas to build 51 of its V100-2.0 megawatt turbines, plus an additional 30 of the company's V117-3.3 megawatt turbines. Collectively, the wind turbines will be capable of supporting the needs of about 50,000 homes.
