GE will supply 31 of its 1.6-100 wind turbines for Fina Enerji's Tayakadin wind project in Istanbul, Turkey, which will supply enough electricity to meet the needs of more than 14,000 Turkish households.
GE announced the order at the European Wind Energy Association's EWEA 2012 in Copenhagen.
The project will mark the first European installation of the GE 1.6-100 machine. The 50-MW Tayakadin project supports the Turkish government's plans to increase the country's wind energy production to 20,000 MW by the year 2023.
