Vestas is to supply 17 of its V90-2.0 MW units under a supply contract signed with Camas Energy S.r.l. and W3 S.r.l., for the Maida wind farm, which is being developed in the Calabria region of Italy. Along with the wind turbines, Vestas will also provide service and maintenance for five years, as well as its VestasOnline Business SCADA system.

Delivery of the wind turbines is scheduled for the second half of 2010, while the wind farm is to be completed by the end of 2010. The Maida wind farm is located in one of Italy's best regions for wind energy – Calabria. This region is now seeing wind energy development, previously usually associated with Italian regions in the south. Once completed, the Maida wind farm will produce enough clean electricity to supply about 37,000 average Italian households.
