Danish utility DONG Energy has officially inaugurated the 400MW Anholt offshore wind farm in the Kattegat, located off Denmark's eastern coast, around 20km north-east of the Jutland peninsula. The project, which features 111 Siemens 3.6MW wind turbines, will supply enough electricity to power approximately 400,000 Danish households. The project, which is owned by DONG Energy (50%), Pension Danmark (30%) and PKA (20%), connected its first turbine to the grid in September 2012 and has become fully operational by connecting the 111th turbine to the Danish grid in June 2013.

Siemens Energy received an order from Argentina for the turnkey construction of the Guillermo Brown thermoelectric power plant. The customer is Fideicomiso Central Termoelectrica Guillermo Brown S.A. The core of the new power plant will consist of two SGT5-4000F gas turbines. Together, they will have an electrical generating capacity of approximately 580 megawatts (MW). The order volume, including power transmission, fuel supply solutions and a Full Service Maintenance contract for 10 years, amounts to approximately USD 800 million.

Vestas Wind Systems has won a contract from Turkish steel pipe producer Erciyas Celik Boru to deliver wind turbines for the 52MW Kavakli RES wind power plant in the Balikesir province, Turkey. According to the contract, Vestas will supply, install and commission 16 V112-3.3MW wind turbines at the plant, including a five-year active output management (AOM4000) full-scope service contract, which comprise scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and consumables. Delivery of wind turbines to the site is expected in the first quarter of 2014 and the commissioning of the plant is set for the second quarter of 2014. The plant is estimated to generate approximately 193GWh of electricity a year, which is enough to power more than 390,000 people in Turkey, and cut CO2 emissions by more than 95,000t annually.
