Vestas has received a firm and unconditional order for 23 V110-2.0 MW wind turbines for a wind power plant in the Indian State of Karnataka.

The project, which is expected to power approximately 100,000 Indian households, includes a 15-year Active Output Management (AOM) 5000 service contract, in which Vestas guarantees a defined level of availability and performance.  The project also includes the supply of foundations and SCADA Vestas Business Online for data-driven monitoring and preventive maintenance.

Delivery and commissioning are expected during the second quarter of 2016. Vestas will be responsible for the supply and installation of the wind turbines.
