Turbine delivery is planned to be completed before the end of 2017, while commissioning is scheduled to take place next year.
Siemens Gamesa will use a new technique for building the turbine foundations that can only be deployed when a windfarm meets certain conditions. The technique is capable of increasing productivity by raising the height of the hub by up to 5m.
The solution also helps reduce the overall energy expenses of a facility and enables customised design blueprints in accordance with the terrain.
Siemens Gamesa has installed a total of 1,250 wind turbines in Mexico.
