FPL Energy has ordered 218 Siemens wind
turbines to be installed at several wind farms across the U.S. for
delivery in 2009.
Siemens will deliver its 2.3MW wind turbines in 2009 with a
total capacity of approximately 500MW. Together with this order, Siemens has
received US$ 2.4 billion in wind turbine orders in the U.S. to
date this fiscal year. The scope of supply consists of delivery, technical
field assistance and commissioning of the wind turbines. The blades for the
units will be manufactured at the new production facility in Iowa, which was
opened in 2007.
