1. Mark Lewis:

   The problem in my view is that new nuclear build is just not economic at prices below 100 euros per megawatt-hour, just look at the guarantee the UK government had to give EDF for Hinkley C.

2. Chief Financial Officer Martin Novak:

   The logic is very simple, yes, it makes no sense to build anything new( with power prices) at 30 euros per megawatt hour anymore but it does make sense to buy something, discounting it with cash flow.

3. Chief Executive Anders Runevad:

   This is a more market-oriented approach, there is a different logic now that we get into an auction market. The EnVentus platform, the first new Vestas platform since 2011, will offer customers more flexibility than The EnVentus platform existing 2 megawatt( MW) and 4 MW platforms, Vestas said. The company is also launching new V150-5.6 MW and V162-5.6 MW turbines to run on The EnVentus platform. New EnVentus-based turbines will be built from standardised modules that fit other turbines rather than from parts that only fit one platform. New EnVentus-based turbines will make manufacturing, servicing and upgrading New EnVentus-based turbines simpler, Vestas said. Vestas, whose main rivals are General Electric( GE.N) and Siemens Gamesa( SGREN.MC), last month became the first to install 100 gigawatts of capacity globally. The wind power industry has been grappling with reduced subsidies in recent years and governments seeking more competitive contract tenders, increasing pressure on suppliers, turbine makers and wind farm developers to reduce costs.
