GE Vernova secures order for wind projects in Japan

GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind division has secured an order to supply 14 4.2 MW-117m turbines for the Iwaya and Shitsukari wind farms. These projects are being developed by Eurus near Higashidori in Aomori, Japan. The order was secured in the fourth quarter of 2024. These projects are anticipated to commence commercial operations by 2028.

Furthermore, these wind farms will enable both companies to support Japan’s renewable energy goals. This is the fourth major order achieved by GE Vernova in Japan since early 2024. With this addition, GE Vernova’s wind turbines will collectively contribute 1.8 GW of energy capacity in the country.

Earlier in May 2024, GE Vernova secured a €700 million contract from Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) to supply turbines for a 760 MW Teruel wind project in Spain. The project involves the delivery, installation, and commissioning of 125 GE Vernova 6.1-158 units for the Maestrazgo cluster of the Teruel wind project.
