RWE has signed a framework agreement with Siemens Gamesa. RWE plans to build onshore wind farms in Europe with a total capacity of 1,000 megawatts using Siemens Gamesa turbines by 2027.
Siemens Gamesa will thus become a leading supplier of large components for the RWE project pipeline.
Katja Wünschel, CEO Onshore Wind and Solar Europe & Australia, RWE Renewables: “Europe needs more wind power. And fast. We are making our contribution and resolutely driving forward the energy transition. With this contract, RWE has secured fixed delivery dates and a structured price settlement for a gigawatt volume. This means the supply chain for major large-scale components of new onshore wind farms in Europe is already in place.”
RWE will mainly procure the Siemens Gamesa 5.X onshore platform with a flexible rated output of 6.6 to 7.0 megawatts – also in its home market of Germany. In addition, projects will also utilize the Siemens Gamesa 4.X platform as part of the agreement.
The contract will also include a service agreement for the wind turbines, which will eventually enable RWE to carry out maintenance and inspections on its own.
Richard Luijendijk, Onshore CEO of Siemens Gamesa: “The significance of this agreement for us at Siemens Gamesa extends beyond its magnitude, as it further enhances our collaboration with one of our key customers, RWE. With this deal in effect, we can guarantee the timely and cost-effective availability of our best-in-class technology, the Siemens Gamesa 5.X onshore platform. We thank RWE for their trust and are excited to continue our leadership in the energy transition, working together towards safeguarding the energy security in Europe.”
