The company signed an agreement with Electricity Generating Public Company (EGCO) to provide the turbines to the Theppana wind farm, located about 250km northeast of Bangkok.

It will be Goldwind’s first project in Southeast Asia and is also EGCO’s first wind farm.

It is expected to complete construction in the third quarter of 2013.

The first of China’s wind equipment companies to go overseas, Goldwind has already sold more than 500MW of turbines overseas to markets including Australia, the US, South America and Africa.
