By Vestas has secured an agreement with Vena Energy to service its 54 MW Gamesa turbines at Pililla wind project in Philippines.
The agreement is the first full-scope multi-brand service deal for Vestas in the world, leveraging its expertise in servicing 3.6 GW Gamesa turbines globally, including Taiwan in the Asia Pacific region.
The Pililla wind project was commissioned in 2015. It is located 50 kilometers east of the capital city of Manila and comprises 27 Gamesa G90-2.0 MW turbines.
