Vestas preferred supplier for Spanish projects
An order of that size would be significant for Vestas, the world's largest wind turbine maker, which has forecast its 2010 order intake will reach 8,000-9,000 MW, falling to 7,000-8,000 MW the year after.
Vestas Wind Systems A/S said in a statement its position as "preferred technology partner" was confirmed by the regional government of Galacia following a public tendering round.
More than 70 percent of the total tender capacity of 2,325 MW has been awarded to 20 bidding companies which had submitted proposals based exclusively on Vestas technology, Vestas said.
"Vestas will now continue the negotiations with the different companies, and the orders will be announced as they become firm and unconditional and moreover comply with Vestas' rules of disclosure," said Vestas, which forecast no growth in profit and revenue next year.
