RWE has signed a framework agreement with Siemens Gamesa to equip its onshore wind farms in Europe with a total capacity of 1,000 MW with Siemens Gamesa turbines by 2027. Siemens Gamesa will thus become a leading supplier of large-scale components for RWE's 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 is mainly relying on the Siemens Gamesa 5.X model with a flexible rated output of 6.6 to 7.0 megawatts. In addition, the Siemens Gamesa 4.X type will also be used in various projects under the contract. RWE intends to take over the service itself in order to carry out maintenance and inspections successively 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.”

Both partners have agreed not to disclose financial details.
