  • Vestas to Supply 35 MW of Turbines for Heavy Industry Sites in Belgium
    News release from Vestas Northern and Central Europe Hamburg, 30 June 2021 Vestas to supply 35 MW of turbines for heavy industry sites in Belgium Vestas has received a 35 MW order to supply turbines to two projects being developed for corporate heavy industry in Belgium, including providing renewable power for steel production. The two projects are being developed by Storm, a Belgian wind farm developer and owner-operator, and are both located in the industrial harbour of Ghent, Belgium. Storm is developing the 31 MW ArcelorMittal Wind Farm, which will comprise of three V162-6.0 MW EnVentus turbines, two V150-4.2 MW turbines operating at 4.3 MW power mode, and one V150-4.2 MW turbine. The three EnVentus turbines are the first to be installed in Belgium, and will be the largest turbines installed onshore in Belgium. They will be built subsidy-free on the basis of a 20-year corporate PPA with ArcelorMittal. The ArcelorMittal Wind Farm will be powering the ArcelorMittal steel manufacturing plant in Ghent, providing the electricity for steel production. The turbines will also be equipped with Vestas’ Anti-Icing System, enhancing performance by improving power production in cold climate conditions. At a separate project, the 4.2 MW Honda Gent Wind Farm, which is also being developed by Storm, Vestas will deliver one V136-4.2 MW turbine. The power from this project will be used by Honda Motor Europe’s logistics centre in Ghent. Vestas will supply, install, and commission turbines at both sites. At both sites, Vestas will provide service through long-term 20-year Active Output Management 4000 (AOM 4000) service agreements, providing power performance certainty and Vestas’ industry-leading service expertise throughout the lifetime of the projects.

  • Wind Power: Energy of the Future It’S Worth Thinking About
    Wind power: energy of the future It’s worth thinking about. »Energy appears to me to be the first and unique virtue of man.« Wilhelm von Humboldt 2 3 »With methods from the past, there will be no future.« Dr. Bodo Wilkens Wind power on the increase »Environmental protection is an opportunity and not a burden we have to carry.« Helmut Sihler When will the oil run out? Even if experts cannot agree on an exact date, one thing is certain: the era of fossil fuels is coming to an end. In the long term we depend on renewable sources of energy. This is an irrefutable fact, which has culminated in a growing ecological awareness in industry as well as in politics: whereas renewable sources of energy accounted for 4.2 percent of the total consumption of electricity in 1996, the year 2006 registered a proportion of 12 per- cent. And by 2020 this is to be pushed up to 30 percent. The growth of recent years has largely been due to the use of wind power. The speed of technical development over the past 15 years has brought a 20-fold rise in efficiency and right now wind power is the most economical regenerat- ive form there is to produce electricity. In this respect, Germany leads the world: since 1991 more than 19.460 wind power plants have been installed with a wind power capacity of 22.247 MW*. And there is more still planned for the future: away from the coastline, the offshore plants out at sea will secure future electricity supplies.

    Report Wind Farm Optimisation 2016-2020 − Findings after 5 years of systematic optimisation of the Own Farm Segment − Average 2% p. a. additional yield through technical innovations − Over 20% lower power generation costs through commercial optimisations Bremen, 13 July 2021 Energiekontor Report Wind Farm Optimisation 2016-2020 1 I. Background Since 2016, we have been a development and testing partner for prototype development and field tests in 13 projects for manufacturer-independent technical retrofits of wind turbines to increase yield. In our own parks, we have achieved an average of 2% additional yield p. a. through an individually designed optimal mix of measures. In addition, we were able to reduce the electricity production costs by more than 20% compared to the expenses of previous years through commercial optimisations. As one of the leading project developers and operators for wind power, we have built 128 wind farms with 642 turbines to date and are responsible for the operational management of 1 GW of wind power capacity, of which more than300 MW are in our own portfolio. Since 2016, we have been systematically optimising the yields and profitability of our wind farms and have established a comprehensive and comparative testing system in the market. After evaluating the results of the last five years, we have now summarised our diverse experience with technical and commercial optimisations in this report Wind Farm Optimisation 2016-2020, as a contribution to the most effective use of wind power in general and in order to contribute to faster progress in the energy transition. II. technical optimisation - innovations for more yield Through technical optimisations in our wind farms we generate 2% more yield per year.
