The construction of Gulf professional scale wind farm is planned to start at the end of the year

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Oman, the Oman professional scale wind farm construction contract will be officially signed on October 22 and is expected to start construction at the end of the year, which is also a professional scale wind farm project in the Gulf region.

It is reported that the Dhofar wind farm project with an installed capacity of 50 megawatts is jointly developed by Masdar in Abu Dhabi and RAECO, the Oman Rural Power Company, with a total investment of US $200 million. The project is located in southern Oman, and is expected to reduce 110000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Oman, GE will be responsible for the EPC project of the project and provide 13 3.8 MW wind turbines for the wind farm. Last month, Masdar signed a wind turbine supply contract with GE and TSK in Spain.

The construction period of this wind farm project is 24 months and is expected to be put into use in 2020.
