Nordex has received three separate orders for wind turbines in Germany:
Nordex Group receives orders for 50 MW in Germany from wpd
At the end of 2024, wpd, one of the world’s leading developers and operators (IRPP) of wind and solar farms, ordered nine Delta4000 series turbines from the Nordex Group for three projects in Germany. The orders also include the premium service for the maintenance of the systems over 20 years.
The orders from Nordex’s long-standing customer include a N149/4.X turbine for the Kalletal wind farm in North Rhine-Westphalia, four N149/5.X turbines for the Diepholzer Bruch wind farm in Lower Saxony and four N149/5.X turbines for the Gnutz wind farm in Schleswig-Holstein. The turbines for the projects will be delivered and installed in 2025.
In the past, the two companies have already worked together successfully to implement renewable energy projects not only in Germany, but also in France, Sweden and Finland. 'We are pleased to continue our successful cooperation with wpd and to have once again received orders for 50 MW in Germany from our long-standing customer. They are a vote of confidence in Nordex’s turbine technology and in our teams in the field,' says Felipe Villalon Waldburg-Zeil, Director Sales Region Central of the Nordex Group.
'We are delighted to be able to continue to build on the good cooperation with Nordex,' says Dr. Hartmut Brösamle, Managing Director of wpd GmbH. 'In our important German home market, we are increasingly feeling the positive effects of the political decisions and will continue to work with Nordex to advance important projects that will help us achieve our national climate targets.'
DenkerWulf places orders for 148 MW with the Nordex Group in Germany
At the end of 2024, DenkerWulf, one of Germany’s leading onshore wind farm developers, ordered 25 Delta4000 series turbines from the Nordex Group for seven projects. The orders also include the premium service for the maintenance of the systems over 20 years.
The wind farms Dörphof-Thumby, Owschlag, Hohenaspe, Ottenbüttel, Galmsbüll-Norderhof, Quarnbek-Erweiterung and Bimöhlen-Hasenmoor are all being built in Schleswig-Holstein. From the beginning of 2026, the Nordex Group will supply and install eight N163/6.X turbines, twelve N149/5.X turbines and five N133/4800 turbines for the projects.
'This extremely impressive order volume underlines how well-rehearsed and successful the cooperation with Nordex is,' says DenkerWulf CEO Torsten Levsen. 'This once again makes it clear that our demand for efficiency is not limited to technological topics but includes a functioning partnership.'
Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President Region Central of the Nordex Group: 'Eleven orders for 200 MW in 2024 alone are proof that in DenkerWulf we have a long-standing customer who repeatedly trusts our versatile turbine technology. As a reliable partner, DenkerWulf always brings their projects to the point where they are ready for construction as announced – this ensures us as a manufacturer very good predictability, so to speak. We are very much looking forward to the new joint projects.'
UKA orders 80 turbines from the Nordex Group for projects over 540 MW in Germany
In December 2024, wind and solar park developer UKA (Umweltgerechte Kraftanlagen GmbH & Co. KG) ordered 80 turbines from the Delta4000 series from the Nordex Group for a total of 540 MW.
The Nordex Group received orders for various turbines for 15 UKA wind energy projects in six German states – 64 turbines for its latest turbine type N175/6.X alone. The orders also include thirteen N163/6.X turbines and three N149/5.X turbines. Nordex will also be responsible for the service of all turbines for 20 years after the wind farms go into operation in 2026 based on a Premium Service contract.
One of the largest orders was placed with nine N175/6.X turbines and three N149/5.X turbines for the 78 MW Herzberg-Granzin wind farm in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
The Nordex Group will install all N175/6.X turbines on concrete hybrid towers developed in-house with a hub height of 179 metres.
The orders are part of a framework agreement between UKA and the Nordex Group that was extended in November 2023.
'This order increases the project volume that UKA currently has in the construction phase with Nordex in Germany to a total of 1,070 MW. This is a sign of confidence in the quality of Nordex’s products and management,' says Stefan Kath, Managing Director of the UKA Group.
'We are very pleased to once again supply UKA with modern, highly efficient turbines for their projects. The success of the energy transition in Germany is not only the result of good technology, but also of long-term partnership between all those involved. The new wind farms will further support the path of self-sufficient energy supply in the state. After all, wind is a domestic energy source in Germany and not a scarce resource to be imported,' says Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President Region Central of the Nordex Group.
