ABB wins Belgian wind farm order
Scheduled to begin service in 2013, the Belgian wind farm was expected to generate 1,000 gigawatt-hours of electricity per year — equivalent to the annual consumption of 600,000 people in Belgium, ABB said.
The order was placed by Belgian company C-Power NV.
In July, ABB, which produces equipment for utility companies, received its largest-ever such transmission order, a $700 million order to connect North Sea wind farms to the German grid.
