Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy SA (SGRE.MC) said Wednesday that
it has signed two agreements with a subsidiary of NextEra Energy
Resources to repower three wind farms in Texas.
The company said the total capacity of the units is 508
megawatts.
Repowering the turbines consists of upgrading them to increase
their output, improve performance and reliability, as well as
increase lifetime energy production.
On the one side, it will repower 362 wind turbines at the Indian
Mesa and Woodward farms. Completion of the project is expected by
the end of 2018 and the sites will remain operational during the
installation, Siemens Gamesa said.
Additionally, another 210 turbines will be repowered at the King
Mountain farm. "The company will provide upgraded materials,
warranty and commissioning services," it said.
NextEra Energy Resources is a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Inc.
(NER).
