Nordex will supply 12 N133 turbines for the 58MW Drumnahough wind farm in County Donegal.
SSE and FuturEnergy Ireland confirmed the award as pre-construction works advance at the site 13km from Letterkenny.
Nordex said it will install the turbines and deliver long-term premium service support once the project is operational.
This story was first reported exclusively in today’s subscriber-only edition of reNEWS.
Component deliveries will begin in early 2027 via Killybegs Harbour.
Nordex said installation will start later that year.
The company said it will use local contractors, suppliers and businesses where possible.
SSE Renewables construction projects director Patrick Greene said: “With construction due to begin in the coming weeks, the appointment of the Nordex Group as turbine provider marks a significant milestone in progressing Drumnahough Wind Farm.”
He said: “We value Nordex’s commitment to leveraging the local supply chain wherever possible and look forward to collaborating closely with them throughout the construction phase of the project.”
Nordex Group managing director UK & Ireland Jason Welch said: “We’re pleased to have been awarded the contract to manufacture and install turbines for the Drumnahough wind farm – another important milestone in Ireland’s renewable energy journey.”
He said: “With the N133’s suitability for high wind locations and our long-term service commitment, at Nordex, we’re proud to continue to deliver as a trusted, dependable partner in the Irish onshore sector.”
Sorensen Civil Engineering has the civil balance of plant contract and Omexom has the electrical balance of plant scope.
SSE Renewables and FuturEnergy Ireland said the project will support Ireland’s Climate Action Plan commitments.
