EDF Power Solutions North America has ordered 20 EnVentus V162-6.2 MW wind turbines from Vestas for the Haute-Chaudière wind project in Québec. The agreement also includes a 10-year Active Output Management (AOM) 5000 service contract. Once operational, the Haute-Chaudière project will deliver clean, reliable energy to tens of thousands of homes across Québec, while contributing to local job creation and regional industrial growth.
“The Haute-Chaudière project is a strong example of what’s possible when experienced partners come together to combine supply chain excellence with world-class technology. We’re proud to partner with EDF power solutions as they continue demonstrating their long-term commitment to deliver wind energy across Québec,” said Laura Beane, President, Vestas North America. “With Hydro-Québec’s goal of adding 10 GW of wind power by 2035, the province has both the sustained volume and the ambition to lead and it’s only through strong partnerships like this, that those goals become a reality.”
“EDF power solutions and Vestas share a strong, long-standing partnership that spans over two decades and 2.9 GW of wind energy projects across North America,” said Tristan Grimbert, President and CEO at EDF power solutions North America. “The Haute-Chaudière wind project, one of three projects awarded by Hydro-Québec through its call for tenders, represents our renewed collaboration with Vestas. This strategic contract not only strengthens the relationship between our companies but also paves the way for future opportunities to advance wind energy.”
