Vestas has secured an order to supply and install turbines for Tilt Renewables’ 108-megawatt Waddi Wind Farm in Western Australia, the Danish wind turbine maker said.
The order covers 18 V162-6.0MW EnVentus turbines, along with a 30-year service and maintenance agreement, Vestas said, highlighting its ongoing partnership with Tilt Renewables on large-scale wind projects in Australia.
“Waddi Wind Farm is a proud investment in Western Australia, not only generating clean, affordable energy for around 68,000 homes but also delivering real benefits for the Dandaragan region,” Tilt Renewables Chief Executive Anthony Fowler said.
He added that the company aimed to maximise local participation in the project. “By working closely with local communities and employing local businesses, we’re ensuring this project leaves a lasting legacy,” Fowler said.
Vestas said the project reflects its focus on supporting Australia’s energy transition. “Waddi is a clear demonstration of Vestas’ commitment to delivering high-quality, utility-scale wind projects that help accelerate the energy transition in Australia,” said Purvin Patel, Vestas’ regional president for Asia Pacific.
“Our partnership with Tilt Renewables continues to raise the bar for engineering excellence, reliability, and long-term service, and we are proud that our technology will support Western Australia’s ambition to build out a stronger, cleaner electricity system,” Patel added.
The Waddi Wind Farm is located about 200 km north of Perth. Vestas said delivery of turbine components is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2027, with commissioning expected to start in the third quarter of that year.
According to the companies, the project is expected to support more than 150 jobs during construction and create six permanent positions once operational.
