Eltel wins two contracts to Swedish wind parks
Eltel has won two contracts to new wind parks to be built by Statkraft SCA Vind AB in the north of Sweden.
One of the contracts includes installation of electrical cables and optical fibers and the other one construction of two substations at 130 kV and 220 kV. The new substations will connect the 63 turbine wind parks with the national grid. The installed power of the wind parks will be 145 MW.
- It feels great that Statkraft SCA Vind AB has awarded Eltel both of these contracts. We not only contribute to the development of the society by building networks, but also by creating new infrastructures for renewable energy along with Sweden's fourth largest electricity producer Statkraft, says Casimir Lindholm, CEO, Eltel Sweden.
Wind power is one of the specialization areas of Eltel. Eltel’s extensive experience in electricity projects and installations make it one of the most interesting partners in wind power projects. The company has in a short time won turbine erection and mechanical and electrical installation contracts for the wind parks of 4 Energia and Aulepa II in Estonia.
