Hamburg, 14 October 2016. In September, Nordex was awarded six new contracts with a combined value of around EUR 64 million in its domestic market, bringing total new business in this region to over EUR 740 million in the year to date.
Last month, Nordex customers ordered 17 multi-MW turbines. The orders were dominated by low and medium-wind (IEC 2 and 3) products, in which Nordex particularly specialises in Germany. “I consider the growing demand for our Delta series to be a good sign. In this way, we are able to continue the success of our bestseller, the N117/2400,” says Jörg Hempel, who is in charge of Nordex’s German business. The Delta series now accounts for more than 60 percent of the order intake.
The largest single project in September was the “Hengeler-Wendfeld” wind farm. This citizen-financed wind farm is composed of seven N131/3300 turbines installed on 134-meter high hybrid towers, thus making optimum use of the wind in the Münsterland region.
