   Geronimo Energy Green River Wind Farm in Illinois
   
   Geronimo Energy, alongside power purchasers and community members, celebrated today the economic and social benefits from the operational 194 megawatt Green River Wind Farm. Green River, located in Lee and Whiteside Counties in Illinois within the PJM Regional Transmission Operator system, began major onsite construction activities in June 2018 and entered operations at the end of 2019. Green River has Virtual Power Purchase Agreements with Apple, Akamai Technologies, and Swiss Re, as well as a Power Purchase Agreement with Illinois Municipal Electric Agency. Akamai, Etsy and Swiss Re previously had limited opportunity to access large renewable energy projects in the regions covered by the thirteen state PJM wholesale electric market. By collaborating with Apple, these companies were able to access wind and solar power from the new projects at competitive prices and agreement terms. Collaborations like this accelerate the pace at which new renewable energy generation is built and brought online.
   
   3Degrees facilitated the renewable energy aggregation with the corporate power purchasers. The project was built by Mortenson and utilizes Siemens Gamesa wind turbines. It was developed and is operated by Geronimo Energy.
   
   The project employed approximately 200 construction workers at its peak and boosted local economies with increased local spending as a direct result of this influx of temporary workers. As an operating project, Green River has begun to provide positive long-term economic impacts to the local and state communities. The project has created 11 new full-time jobs at its Operations & Maintenance building located in Deer Grove, Illinois. Additionally, throughout the first 20 years of operations, Geronimo estimates the project will provide 35 million in new tax revenue and 20 million in landowner payments.

   Siemens Gamesa strengthens its position in Chile with new 60-MW project extension from EDF and Ibereólica
   
   Siemens Gamesa EDF Renewables Ibereólica RenovablesSiemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has received a new 60-MW order to extend the Cabo Leones 1 wind project in Chile, operated by the joint venture formed by the French utility EDF Renewables Chile and Spain’s Grupo Ibereólica Renovables. Under the terms of the agreement, Siemens Gamesa will supply, transport and install 12 of its SG 5.0-145 MW turbines for the Cabo Leones 1 extension wind complex at Comuna de Freirina, in the second region of the Atacama in Chile.
   
   Since 2017, Siemens Gamesa has successfully managed the Cabo Leones 1 wind project located on the coast in the Atacama region of Northern Chile – one of the best areas for wind resources. With a current installed capacity of 115 MW, the wind farm is equipped with 55 of Siemens Gamesa’s SG 2.1-114 MW turbines with an estimated energy production of 350 GWh per year, equaling the annual electricity consumption of 170,000 Chilean households.
   
   Among the Latin American countries, Chile’s renewable energy transition journey has been compelling. The Chilean government has pledged to generate 70 per cent of the country’s energy from renewable sources, such as solar power and wind farms, by 2050. Renewables, therefore, are expected to play a more prominent role in the energy mix in Chile.
   
   Siemens Gamesa will supply the turbines between November 2020 and January 2021. They are slated for commissioning by July 2021. The current Cabo Leones I extension also includes and operation & maintenance agreement for the next 12 years.

   Orsted wint bod van de staat New York voor groot nieuw windpark bij Montauk (USA)
   
   Het Sunrise Wind-project werd voorgesteld door Ørsted US Offshore en Eversource, de bedrijven die nu Deepwater Wind bezitten, en de plannen voor het South Fork Windpark.
   
   Het Sunrise Wind-voorstel roept op om maar liefst 100 turbines te plaatsen in hetzelfde algemene deel van de oceaan als het veel kleinere South Fork Wind Farm, ongeveer 30 zeemijl ten zuidoosten van Montauk. De pitch van het bedrijf aan de staat zegt dat het verwacht dat het project tegen 2024 kan zijn gebouwd en operationeel kan zijn, slechts twee jaar nadat het South Fork-windpark online zou moeten komen.
   
   Ørsted en Eversource, die door de aankoop van Deepwater nu eigenaar zijn van de huurcontracten van meer dan 800 vierkante mijl zeebodem ten zuiden van New England. Ze hebben ook twee andere ontwikkelingsprojecten voor offshore windparken in de maak, met in totaal maar liefst 200 turbines, die stroom naar Rhode Island en Connecticut zullen sturen.
   
   Het Sunrise Wind-project zou ongeveer 800 megawatt aan stroom produceren voor Long Island. Het exacte aantal turbines kan variëren, afhankelijk van de grootte van de gebruikte turbines, en zal waarschijnlijk pas over een aantal jaren gereed zijn.

    Enel Green Power Connects Motilla del Palancar Wind Farm to Grid in Cuenca
    
    Enel Green Power Spain has connected to the electricity grid a 51 MW wind farm in the town of Motilla del Palancar, in the Cuenca province. The investment associated with this project amounts to 51 million euros and it will reach an annual production of 144 GWh, avoiding the emissions of approximately 95,000 tonnes of CO2 per year. The development of this wind farm, made up of 17 wind turbines with a unit power of 3MW, has abided by Enel Green Power's "Sustainable Construction Site" model, which includes the installation of photovoltaic solar panels on each site to cover part of its waste separation energy needs and use of water storage tanks, among other things. Once the construction works are completed, both the photovoltaic panels and the water-saving equipment will be donated to the municipalities where the projects are located for public use.
    
    A wide range of innovative tools and techniques have been used to build this wind farm, such as drones for topographic surveying, smart tracking of turbine components, advanced digital platforms and software solutions for monitoring and remote support of various activities as well as the commissioning of the facility. These solutions allow accurate and reliable data on these activities to be gathered quickly, enhancing overall construction quality and facilitating communication between teams both on- and off-site.

Commissioning of the project is close to completion, with startup of the paper machine scheduled this month, September 2020.
    
    ABB worked with Grupo Gondi’s trusted local partner, Grupo BTO, on the supply of the electrical and drives automation system. This collaboration ensures the best lifecycle support for the systems long after start-up is completed.
    
    Grupo Gondi is the leading company in paper and cardboard packaging, with 65 years of experience in the Mexican market. Currently, Grupo Gondi employs over 7,500 people, with 15 converting plants and 6 recycled paper machines in operation for a current paper production of 650,000 tons per year. With the new paper machine at Monterrey, the Group will increase its capacity to over 1 million tons per year.

    BP en Equinor samen in Amerikaanse windenergie
    
    (ABM FN-Dow Jones) Het Britse olieconcern BP zet met een investering van 1,1 miljard dollar zijn eerste schreden in de ontwikkeling van windenergie voor de Amerikaanse markt en koopt zich daarmee in in de al bestaande activiteiten die het Noorse Equinor heeft ontwikkeld. Dit maakte BP donderdag bekend.
    
    Beide partijen gaan aan de slag met de ontwikkeling van 4 parken op 2 al bestaande locaties voor de kust van New York en Massachusetts. Dit moet een gezamenlijk vermogen opleveren om 2 miljoen huishoudens van energie te kunnen voorzien.
    
    Na de investering hebben beide oliebedrijven een belang van 50 procent in deze samenwerking.
    
    De deal moet nog door de toezichthouder worden goedgekeurd. BP verwacht de transactie begin 2021 te kunnen afronden.
