USA - GE enters $1.4 Billion wind turbine contract for Giant Caithness Project

In addition to supplying the wind turbines, GE will provide ten years of operational and maintenance services to the project

GE received a $1.4 billion contract from independent power producer Caithness Energy to supply wind turbines and provide services for a giant 845-MW wind farm to be located in Oregon, the turbine producer announced.

The wind farm, called Shepherds Flat, has received the majority of the necessary government permits to operate and is ready to be built. Stretching across 30 square miles of Gilliam and Morrow Counties in north-central Oregon near the town of Arlington, the Shepherds Flat project marks the U.S. debut and largest single global order of GE’s 2.5xl wind turbines. A total of 338 turbines will be installed in 2011 and 2012. Currently the largest wind farm is E.ON Climate and Renewables’ 781.5-MW facility located near Roscoe, Texas.

GE Energy Financial Services is investing in the project and, in addition to supplying the wind turbines, GE will provide ten years of operational and maintenance services to the project.
