Hamburg, 15 October 2019. The Nordex Group today announced that in the third quarter of 2019 its customers ordered 436 wind turbines with a total output of 1,700 megawatts (Q3 2018: 974 MW) for projects in 14 countries. Europe accounts for 60 percent of orders from July to September, the USA for 28 percent and Latin America for 12 percent. At 49 percent, the latest generation turbine types – the Delta4000 platform – made up almost half of the order volume in the third quarter.
Patxi Landa, Chief Sales Officer (CSO) of the Nordex Group, commented: “We continue to see strong demand for our wind turbine systems in Europe and overseas, with the new Delta4000 series recording particularly great interest.”
In addition to the projects already announced separately, the Nordex Group received major orders from Sweden, the USA, Brazil, Mexico and the UK in September. Overall, order intake (excluding the services business) in the first nine months of 2019 thus rose to 4.7 gigawatts (9M 2018: 3.1 GW).
