en.Wedoany.com Reported - German wind turbine manufacturer Enercon disclosed on June 12, 2026, that the first wind turbine has been installed at the Vaðölduver wind power project in southern Iceland. This Iceland wind power project, with a planned total capacity of 120 MW, is developed by the Icelandic national power company Landsvirkjun and is located in the Búrfell area, approximately 130 kilometers from Reykjavik.

The Vaðölduver wind power project will be equipped with 28 Enercon E-138 EP3 wind turbines, with a hub height of 81 meters, covering an area of approximately 17 square kilometers. This Iceland wind power project has previously entered the equipment transportation and on-site installation phase. Following the completion of the first wind turbine installation, subsequent units will continue to be advanced according to the construction schedule. Once completed, the project will become one of the larger-scale wind power development projects in Iceland and will complement local hydropower, geothermal, and other power sources.

Landsvirkjun and Enercon signed an equipment supply and construction contract in 2024, and the project is being implemented in phases. Public information shows that the Vaðölduver wind power project is planned to be commissioned between 2026 and 2027. As the construction of the 120 MW installed capacity enters the installation phase, the Iceland wind power project will add new wind turbine capacity to the country's renewable energy structure.
