At the end of September, wpd, one of the world’s leading developers and operators (IRPP) of wind and solar farms, ordered 21 turbines for six projects in Germany from the Nordex Group. As part of these orders totaling 125.7 MW, a premium service for the maintenance of the turbines over a period of 15 years is contractually included.
The orders from long-standing customer wpd include the delivery of six N163/6.X turbines, eleven N149/5.X turbines, two N163/5.X turbines, and two N133/4.8 turbines.
