The Windthorst-2 onshore wind power project in Windthorst, Texas, will consist of 28 Siemens wind turbines of the type SWT-2.3-108. Customers are Brooklyn-based developer OwnEnergy and a fund managed by BlackRock. The wind farm is expected to commence commercial operation in fall 2014. With a total power output of 67.6 megawatts (MW), it will provide clean power to nearly 20,000 American households. A service agreement was also signed for the project and will ensure the reliability, availability and performance of the wind turbines.<\/p>\n<p>Developer OwnEnergy has recently sold a majority interest in the Windthorst-2 project to a fund managed by BlackRock. OwnEnergy will maintain a minority ownership interest and manage its construction.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are proud to work with BlackRock and OwnEnergy on this project as it provides clean, renewable energy to the citizens of Texas,&#8221; says Markus Tacke, CEO of the Wind Power Division of Siemens Energy. &#8220;The equipment supplied by Siemens for this project will be manufactured in the Siemens U.S. plants in Iowa and Kansas to support domestic employment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are excited to complete another great wind project, this time with BlackRock as our partner. We are particularly pleased to work with a leading turbine supplier like Siemens as we deploy our construction and asset management capabilities into Windthorst-2,&#8221; said OwnEnergy Founder and CEO Jacob Susman.<\/p>\n<p>Helping the turbines produce optimum power output and maximize availability, the service and maintenance agreement features Siemens&#8217; innovative remote monitoring and diagnostic solutions. The collection of diagnostics data helps to identify potential issues before they occur, allowing for a proactive service and maintenance approach.<\/p>\n<p>Wind power and energy service are part of Siemens&#8217; Environmental Portfolio. Around 43 percent of its total revenue stems from green products and solutions. That makes Siemens one of the world&#8217;s leading providers of eco-friendly technology.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/link\/redirector.php4?url=http:\/\/www.energy.siemens.com\/hq\/en\/renewable-energy\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.energy.siemens.com.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Siemens Energy was awarded an order for another onshore wind power plant in the USA.
