67% of wind turbine generator sales in international markets The wind turbine generator business unit’s sales amounted to €681 million, 22% more than the sales made in the first three months of 2007. The MWe sold between January and March 2008 grew by 25% when compared to those of the first quarter of 2007. Sixty-seven per cent of the 836 MWe sold were sold in international markets and the remaining 33% in Spain. Other European countries accounted for 25%, the United States 23% and China 14%. Seventy-three per cent of the total number of wind turbines sold in the first three months of 2008 were accounted for by the Gamesa G8x 2MW product platform and the remaining 27% by the G5x 850 kW platform. Gamesa managed to maintain its pace of annual production at 3,600 MW in a difficult environment due to tensions in the supply chain of components like bearings. The company also started up a new wind turbine production facility having an annual capacity of 700 MW in China. |
