Nordex signs three new contracts in Turkey

Nordex Group has secured three new contracts from an existing customer in Turkey to supply 47 multi-megawatt wind turbines.

Under the deal, Nordex will supply N131/3600 and N131/3900 turbines, which will have a combined installed capacity of approximately 180MW.

Additionally, Nordex has entered an agreement with the unnamed customer to provide multi-year services to turbines supplied.

Nordex intends to begin delivery of turbines for the first windfarm from September.

With an established large network of service stations and a market share of nearly 30%, Nordex is reported to be one of the leading suppliers of windpower systems in Turkey.

Nordex Europe sales head Ibrahim Oezarslan said: “This together with our ideally suited products ensuring a high-capacity factor in the projects was the decisive reason for our success.”

Last month, Nordex secured a contract from the French investment company Leonidas Associates for providing nine N117/2400 turbines for a 21.6MW windfarm project.

The company will be shipping the turbines to the French windfarm also by September. Upon completion of the project, Nordex has agreed to operate the windpower facility.

With a workforce of more than 5,000 employees, Nordex carries out production in plants across Germany, Spain, Brazil, India, and the US.
