Swedish Utility Vattenfall has made 鈥渙ne of the single biggest investments in renewables鈥 in its history by ordering 113 modern 8 megawatt (MW) offshore wind turbines from Spanish-German manufacturer Siemens-Gamesa, Vattenfall says in a press release. The turbines, with a total capacity of 950 MW, will be used for three different projects in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. Gunnar Groebler, head of Vattenfall鈥檚 wind power branch, says lumping the three projects together in one tender had helped to reduce costs. 鈥淭his shows once more how quickly and flexibly offshore technology develops,鈥 Groebler says.
