Siemens to Supply 126MW to Onshore Wind Power Plants in Scotland

Siemens was awarded orders for three onshore wind projects in Scotland. For the Dersalloch wind farm in the South Ayrshire region, Siemens will construct, install and commission 23 units of its D3 direct drive wind turbines, providing a combined output of 69 MW. The installation of the turbines is scheduled to begin in spring 2016 with the official handover of the site to developers ScottishPower Renewables in autumn 2016. In addition, Siemens will supply six SWT-2.3-93 wind turbines to the Ewe Hill Phase 1. Furthermore, sixteen wind turbines of the same type will be installed for Phase 2, bringing both sites up to 22 wind turbines. The installation of the turbines for Phase 1 is scheduled for spring 2016, followed by Phase 2 installation in autumn 2016. For Millour Hill Community Wind, Siemens will deliver two SWT-3.2-101 turbines to North Ayrshire.
