German wind turbine manufacturer Senvion has been appointed by Beleolico as the supplier for Taranto wind farm.

Taranto will be the first offshore plant in the Mediterranean Sea, according to Senvion, with a total rated power of 30 MW from 10 Senvion turbines, each with a hub height of 100m.

The turbines will be in front of Taranto harbor in the Apulia region (Southern Italy), in 4-18m water depth. Delivery and installation of the turbines is currently planned in summer 2018, while their commissioning is expected to take place in autumn 2018.

Jointly with the turbines supply and installation, the agreement signed by Beleolico and Senvion foresees a 25-year full maintenance service contract for the Taranto wind farm.
