Vestas, in partnership with renewable energy company TagEnergy, will be responsible for the delivery of the engineering procurement and construction (EPC) for the first stage of 756MW Golden Plains Wind Farm in Victoria, Australia.

Stage One is claimed to be largest onshore wind farm for Vestas in Asia Pacific.

It will feature 122 V162-6.2 MW wind turbines from the EnVentus platform.

Following completion, Vestas will provide a 30-year service and maintenance to optimise the project’s energy production.

Vestas Asia Pacific president Purvin Patel said: “As the leading sustainable technology and service provider both globally and in Australia, we are pleased to partner with TagEnergy and through our best-in-class energy solutions while supporting their ambitious vision of sustainability through the successful delivery of Golden Plains Wind Farm Stage One.”

To support the first stage of Golden Plains Wind Farm, Vestas has levered our capabilities across siting and technology design, finance solutions and grid connection.
