Case: Havøygavlen wind farm
In the remote reaches of the Arctic Circle you’ll find Havøygavlen, Vestas' most northern wind farm, harnessing the power of the Arctic winds to generate clean, sustainable energy. Situated amidst a landscape of icy expanses and rugged terrain, this landmark project comprises of nine V117-4.2 MW Typhoon turbines, each engineered to withstand average wind speeds surpassing 9.0 m/s.
A career at the forefront of sustainable change
The onshore wind industry is growing – fast. From engineering to construction, we're constantly on the lookout for talent to help us revolutionise the global energy system.
