- Vestas has secured a 115 MW order from Enertrag for 16 of its new V172-7.2 MW EnVentus turbines, which will power two wind projects in Brandenburg, Germany.
- The projects will supply electricity to 85,000 households, cut over 200,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually, and support Enertrag’s 100% renewable energy strategy.
Vestas has secured its largest order for its new 7+MW EnVentus-range turbine, marking a significant milestone in the company’s growth. German developer Enertrag placed the order for 115MW of Vestas’ V172-7.2MW turbines for two onshore wind projects in Brandenburg, Germany.
Thanks to strong market momentum in Germany, Vestas surpassed 1GW in firm orders for its 7+MW turbine series, V162-7.2MW and V172-7.2MW, by May 2025. The company has already completed the first commercial installations of these turbines.
Commenting on the deal, Jens Kück, Senior Vice President of NCE Sales Onshore at Vestas, said, “We’re thrilled to have closed these two projects with Enertrag, one of Germany’s leading and most innovative project developers. Our partnership builds on a long-standing, trusted relationship and reflects our shared commitment to innovation.”
In addition, the agreement covers the supply, installation, and commissioning of 12 V172-7.2MW turbines for the 86MW Malchow Ost project and four more for the 29MW Tantow 1 wind farm.
After installation, Vestas will provide full service under a 25-year Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) agreement, ensuring long-term, optimised turbine performance.
Enertrag CEO Gunar Hering also welcomed the partnership: “With this order, we are delivering two major wind projects in our home region of Brandenburg. Both sites will become part of the Enertrag Verbundkraftwerk, supporting our strategy for a secure and fully renewable energy system.”
Furthermore, he stated that Vestas’ advanced technology allows Enertrag to generate more power with fewer turbines, reducing land use while strengthening the regional energy supply.
Together, the projects will power around 85,000 homes and cut over 200,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually, a significant step toward a cleaner future.
Turbine delivery will begin in the first half of 2027, with commissioning scheduled for completion in the second half of 2027.
