GE Renewable Energy (GE) has announced that an agreement was signed with Türkerler Holding, an Ankara-based wind energy investor, to supply a total of 50MW of wind energy capacity at the Tire Wind Farm in Izmir.
In the scope of the agreement, GE will supply and install nine of GE’s 3.2-103 wind turbines and 13 of its 1.7-103 model for the project. GE will also provide maintenance services for equipment for 10 years. The Tire Wind Farm will utilise a combination of GE technologies to adapt to a variety of different wind regimes across the site. GE’s 3.2-103 model on an 85-meter hub height will harness medium to strong wind conditions, and its 1.7-103 model at an 80-meter hub height will support lower wind speed areas.
