Vestas wins 140 MW order for first V163-4.5 MW projects in Spain
News release from Vestas Mediterranean
Madrid, 31 March 2023
Vestas has received a 140 MW order for the Cerrato, Atalayas and San Cebrián wind parks, to be located in Castilla y León, Spain. The contract includes the supply and installation of 20 V163-4.5 MW wind turbines and 11 V150-4.5 MW wind turbines, as well as a 10-year 4000 Active Output Management (AOM 4000) service agreement.
The San Cebrián and Cerrato wind parks will feature the first V163-4.5 MW wind turbines in Europe. The V163-4.5 MW has a large rotor-size-to-rating ratio resulting in a high capacity factor, which in turn enables higher Annual Energy Production and more stable power output at park level. This improves predictability and stability in production, optimising the utilisation of the wind park as well as benefitting the energy grid.
The order has been placed by Estudios y Proyectos Pradamap y Cerrato Eólica (Grupo Vapat). The company has developed and commissioned 650 MW of wind power, and currently has over 2,500 MW of wind power and PV hybrid projects in different states of development and construction.
"We would like to thank Pradamap (Grupo Vapat) for renewing their trust in the Vestas 4 MW platform. This order showcases how our latest models can provide our customers with the reliability and predictability they need to optimise their business case in Spain. We expect that our full converter technology and our strong market presence will continue to contribute to the energy transition in the country", says Agustín Sánchez-Tembleque, Vestas General Manager Spain & Portugal.
Turbine delivery and commissioning are expected by 2024.
The project will also benefit from Vestas' manufacturing footprint in Spain. The company manufactures V150 blades at its factory in Daimiel (Ciudad Real) for the 4 MW and the EnVentus platforms. Since 1991, when Vestas installed its first wind turbine in Spain, the company has secured an order intake of more than 5.1 GW for over 130 wind parks in the country.

Vestas secures 370 MW order from Xcel Energy for two repowering projects in the USA
News release from Vestas-American Wind Technology
Portland, 31 March 2023
Vestas has received an order for two wind projects totalling 370 MW to repower the Pleasant Valley and Border Winds projects owned by Xcel Energy in the USA.
The order for the 213 MW Pleasant Valley project in Minnesota consists of 97 V110-2.0 MW wind turbines delivered in 2.2 MW operating mode, while the 156 MW Border Winds project, located in North Dakota, consists of 71 V110-2.0 MW wind turbines delivered in 2.2 MW operating, which will update the current V100-2.0 MW technology at both sites.
"Vestas and Xcel Energy have a strong history of bringing wind energy to local communities across the US and we look forward to continuing this partnership by extending the longevity and increasing the energy projection of current wind projects like Pleasant Valley in Minnesota and Border Winds in North Dakota," said Laura Beane, President of Vestas North America. "Upgrading the site's current technology will not only extend the lifespan of the project and bring clean energy to thousands of households, it will also provide needed economic opportunities to these communities."
"As a national leader in wind energy, we're pleased to work with Vestas on repowering two Upper Midwest wind farms which have long provided clean, affordable energy to our customers as well as economic benefits to surrounding communities. Advancing the technology at Pleasant Valley in Minnesota and Border Winds in North Dakota is important to our plan for achieving 85% carbon-free energy by 2030 in the region while keeping energy costs as low as possible," said Chris Clark, President, Xcel Energy Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota.
Both projects include supply, delivery, and commissioning of the turbines, and Vestas will continue to service the turbines and provide an energy-based availability guarantee, designed to ensure optimised performance of the asset.
Turbine delivery for both projects will begin in the second quarter of 2025 with commissioning scheduled for completion in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Analysechef fastholder positivt syn på Vestas efter god ordreudvikling
3/4 07:18
Vindmølleproducenten Vestas fik rundet første kvartal af med en stribe ordreannonceringer i løbet af sidste uge.
I alt nåede Vestas at offentliggøre 13 ordrer på i alt 3022 megawatt i løbet af januar, februar og marts, hvilket er rekord for et første kvartal.
Det betegner aktieanalysechef Jacob Pedersen fra Sydbank som "stærkt", og banken fastholder efterfølgende en købsanbefaling for vindmølleproducentens aktie.
- En brasiliansk gigantordre på 1310 megawatt trækker læsset, men der er også storordrer til Sydafrika og USA. Udviklingen vidner om, at kunderne flere steder tager store skridt fremad, når det kommer til projekternes størrelse.
- I det miljø ligner Vestas et oplagt valg som leverandør for mange kunder, og selskabet kan som strategisk partner hos de største kunder støbe fundamentet til en måske endnu stærkere position i fremtiden, skriver Jacob Pedersen i en kommentar.
Han pointerer dog også, at storordren til Brasilien helt givet vil påvirke salgsprisen per megawatt negativt, da Brasilien er et marked med lave salgspriser - og vel at mærke også lave omkostninger.
- I samme åndedrag bemærker vi, at ordreindgangen fra Latinamerika udgør cirka 57 pct. af kvartalets annoncerede ordrer. Det trækker i samme retning. Derfor er der også større usikkerhed end normalt om udviklingen i salgspriserne, påpeger Jacob Pedersen.
Han estimerer en salgspris på 1,02 mio. euro per megawatt i kvartalet, hvilket vil være et mærkbart fald fra 1,15 mio. euro per megawatt i fjerde kvartal 2022. Det mener han dog ikke bør bekymre henset til ordrernes sammensætning.
Udover de annoncerede ordrer estimerer analytikeren 500 megawatt i uannonceret ordreindgang i kvartalet.
Udover de faste og ubetingede landvindordrer er Vestas i kvartalet også valgt som foretrukken leverandør til tre havvindprojekter på i alt 2655 megawatt.
- Dermed er Vestas valgt som foretrukken leverandør til mere end 8,6 gigawatt havvindprojekter i de seneste ti måneder. Et meget klart bevis på, at der - i en ikke alt for fjern fremtid - venter et vækstmæssigt tigerspring fremad i Vestas' aktivitetsniveau, vurderer Jacob Pedersen.
I takt med at langt flere ordrer med forhøjede salgspriser indgår i Vestas' resultater i de kommende kvartaler, venter han at se en markant rentabilitetsforbedring.
- Går den hånd i hånd med flere ordrer, ligner Vestas lige pludselig en endnu mere attraktiv investering i et globalt økonomisk miljø præget af stilstand, fremhæver Sydbanks analysechef desuden.
