Vestas has received another order of 49 MW from Master Investment Company Ltd., who placed its first-ever wind turbine order with Vestas in April earlier this year.

As an influential company in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region (NHAR), Master Investment Company is an important partner for Vestas in the region and for driving the growth of wind energy in a healthy and sustainable manner, which builds on solid technical knowledge and high quality projects.

Chairman of Master Investment Company Ltd., Mr Ma Fuqiang said at the signing ceremony: “Vestas has demonstrated strong technical capabilities and high level of expertise at the initial stages of the project. We are very pleased to have chosen Vestas as the strategic partner for our wind energy business.”

“The previous order from Master Investment was recognition of our technical strengths,” says Jens Tommerup, President of Vestas China. “This second order underlines the confidence Master Investment has in our people, our products and our capabilities. We have built up a very good working relationship with the customer, and we are very pleased to being able to share our knowledge and insights with them.”

The order consists of 25 units of the popular V90-1.8/2.0 MW turbine. This megawatt class model is one of the best performing turbines for medium- and low-wind sites with a long track record, and it is built on mature technology and reliable design.

The contract includes towers, delivery, transportation, installation and commissioning of the wind turbines, a VestasOnline® Business SCADA solution and a two-year service and maintenance agreement.

The site of the project is located in Huianbao, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and the turbines are scheduled to be delivered in the second quarter of 2011.
