Vestas wins Chinese turbine order

Delivery of the turbines is planned to take place during the third quarter of 2010, Vestas Wind Systems A/S said, adding that the deal includes supply and commissioning of the turbines and twoyear maintenance.

The order from an undisclosed customer is for the second phase of a project in Heilongjiang province for which Vestas announced an order at the end of March, it said.

At the customers request, further details about the projects ownership cannot be disclosed, Vestas said.

By the end of 2009, Vestas had an accumulated installed capacity of more than 2,000 MW in China, which makes it one of the largest players in the Chinese wind energy market, the company said.
