“We are very satisfied with these new orders from Vortex Energy that reinforce Vestas’ positive development in the Polish wind energy market, and we look forward to continuing strengthening our position in the market,” says Klaus Steen Mortensen, President of Vestas Northern Europe A/S.

Delivery of the wind turbines for both projects is scheduled for the end of 2008/beginning of 2009, and commissioning is expected during the second quarter of 2009.
“We are very pleased to place these two orders with Vestas in cooperation with our partner ScanEnergy. With this portfolio we are able to strengthen our position in the emerging Polish market and provide a basis for a promising future business relationship with Vestas,” says Till Jeske, Board Member of Vortex Polska Sp. z o.o.
The Dobrzyn and the Wronki wind power plants will annually save the environment from approx 80,000 and 98,000 tons of CO2, respectively. The total production from the wind power plants will provide enough electricity to power approx 50,000 Polish households.
The above orders do not affect Vestas’ expectations for 2008 cf. Company announcement No. 13/2008 of 27 February 2008.
