Engineering multinational provides 157 wind turbines for SA wind farms

Electrical engineering and electronics company Siemens will, by 2017, have supplied a total of 157 wind turbines to wind energy projects in South Africa, following a 2014 contract that committed Siemens to supplying wind turbines to a consortium led by wind and solar utility Mainstream Renewable Power for the supply of wind turbines for the Khobab, Loeriesfontein 2 and Noupoort wind farms in South Africa. Of the 157 wind turbines, 35 turbines are destined for Noupoort, while the balance of 122 will be shared equally between Khobab and Loeriesfontein.
