The Dai Phong wind project (40MW) saw a major development in November 2019 with the arrival of the Vestas V150-4.2MW wind turbines at Cam Ranh port. This marks the presence and usage of wind turbines with the largest rotor diameter in Southeast Asia, using 73.7 meter long blades. The project will consist of 10 wind turbine generators (WTGs) and is the first phase of the larger Mui Ne project which could eventually grow up to 200+ MW.
"Dai Phong will be equipped with the latest wind turbine technology and the longest blades installed, exhibiting Vietnam's leadership in the wind energy market within the region. In its operational stage, the Dai Phong wind farm will displace around 57,000 tons of CO2 per year to power 90,000 Vietnamese households,” explains Irving Paul Girsang, Senior Wind Engineer of The Blue Circle.
The Blue Circle currently has the largest coverage of ASEAN countries of any Independent Power Producer (IPP) or renewable energy (RE) project developers, with projects in eight countries out of ten within the region.
