GE will manufacture the turbines at its site in Salzbergen, Germany, while the blades will be produced at its LM Wind Power European facilities. The company has also signed a 20-year full-service agreement.
The agreement scope includes offering data-driven insights, expert recommendations, and local advanced field services through GE’s services and monitoring sites across Spain.
