(Bloomberg) — Vestas Wind Systems A/S, the world’s largest
turbine maker, agreed to supply equipment with 122 megawatts of
capacity to Allianz Capital Partners for a power plant in
Sweden.

The 37 3.3-megawatt turbines will be delivered in the first
quarter of next year and the project is expected to be
operational the following quarter, Aarhus, Denmark-based Vestas
