Vestas has received a 554 MW order to power an undisclosed wind project in the USA. The order consists of 123 V163-4.5 MW turbines, Vestas’ newest high capacity factor wind turbine.

The orders include supply, delivery, and commissioning of the turbines, as well as a multi-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement, designed to ensure optimised performance of the asset. 

Turbine delivery begins in the third quarter of 2026 with commissioning scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.

Vestas also announces that Italian renewables producer Edison Rinnovabili has placed a 81 MW order for the repowering of the Roio del Sangro, Monteferrante Guado, Monteferrante Casone and Montazzoli wind parks, in Abruzzo, Italy. 

The contract includes the supply and installation of 18 V136-4.5 MW wind turbines, as well as a 10-year operation and maintenance service agreement.

“I’d like to thank Edison for the trust placed in Vestas for the repowering of their projects. We are really proud to see how the diversity of our portofolio continues to optimise our customer’s business cases in Italy”, says Vestas General Manager Italy, Francesco Amati.  

Turbine delivery is expected for the second quarter of 2025 whilst commissioning is planed for the last quarter of the same year. 

The order also reinforces Vestas’ leadership in the country’s wind energy sector, where it has installed over 5.2 GW since 1991.
