Five of Gamesa's 2MW models have received Chinese certification

In a move the company said would open up new opportunities in Asia, the China Electricity Power Research Institute (CEPRI) has certified Gamesa’s G80, G87, G90, G97 and G87 CS models.

Gamesa is also expecting to receive certification for its 4.5MW G128 turbine later this year following the completion of testing in northern Spain.

"It will definitely help Gamesa to develop the further market for this type of the machine in China," the company said.

Meanwhile, Gamesa’s G58-850 kW wind turbine has been tested in China’s Liaoning province and received certification in March. The G52-850 kW turbine is undergoing testing and will receive the certification soon, Gamesa added.
