The 2.05 MW wind turbines will be installed in the latter half of 2012 and the wind farm is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

Rick Eggleston, Managing Director of REpower UK, says: “Signing the contract for Bradwell has boosted our RWE npower renewables portfolio to over 70 MW. They were one of the first companies to buy REpower wind turbines in the UK, so we’re delighted to continue our relationship with them.”

Michael Williams, Project Manager from RWE npower renewables, adds: "We are pleased to be working again with REpower UK and building on our past successes. RWE npower renewables are now finalising contracts for the associated Civil and Electrical Balance of Plant works. We aim to start construction of the wind farm before Easter 2012 which is likely to present opportunities for economic benefit and employment in the region."
