Vestas has sold its 183 MW Delta wind project in the USA to the AES Corporation. The project is being developed by Steelhead Americas, Vestas’ North American development arm, and marks what Vestas calls a milestone in its efforts to expand its presence in renewable energy development and unlock new US markets to propel a sustainable future.
The Delta project, located in Mississippi, US, is the state’s first wind project and is expected to have one of the highest blade tip heights in North America, allowing it to access greater wind speeds at higher altitudes, and bringing Mississippi an untapped opportunity.
Through its development activities, Vestas aims to enable future growth of renewable energy assets in North America with over 3 GW of renewable energy projects in the pipeline. Through development and co-development efforts, Steelhead Americas has supported Vestas in securing over 3350 MW of North American turbine orders since its formation in 2016.
