Located in Scotland’s Moray Firth inlet, the Moray West project is expected to generate its first power in 2024.

Siemens Gamesa said that order also includes a service agreement.

Moray West project director Adam Morrison said: “Following the earlier announcement that Siemens Gamesa were the preferred bidder, we are delighted to have finalised agreements for supply and installation of the SG 14-222 DD turbines and their servicing.

“We look forward to working with Siemens Gamesa to ensure a smooth and safe installation programme from the Nigg pre-assembly port as we move towards generation from this major renewables project – stepping towards Net Zero, increasing energy security and lowering the cost of energy.”

Earlier this month, Siemens Gamesa received an order from Vena Energy to supply wind turbines for a wind project in India.

Installation works for the 133MW project are expected to start next year, with the turbines to be manufactured at Siemens Gamesa’s facilities in India.
