Wind turbine

France-based renewable power producer Voltalia has commissioned the 30MW Terral wind farm in Brazil.

The facility has been equipped with ten 3MW wind turbines, and represents completion of the second phase of the Areia Branca project.

The project is due to be completed by February 201. It is still awaiting the commissioning of another ten 3MW turbines at the Carcara 1 wind farm.

Completion of the Areia Branca cluster will raise Voltalia’s wind power capacity to 90MW in the country.

The firm also has two other ongoing projects, namely the 108MW SMG and the 93MW Vamcruz projects, both in Brazil.

"Completion of the Areia Branca cluster will raise Voltalia’s wind power capacity to 90MW in Brazil."

Commissioning of the Terral wind farm has raised the firm’s total production capacity to 133.1MW, up until the end of 2014.
