Nordex has received a turbine order worth almost 48MW for a wind project in Austria.
The company will supply and install seven of its N163/6.X turbines for the 47.6MW Lavamünd wind farm, which is being developed by Kelag.
In addition, a 20-year premium service contract has been signed for the long-term maintenance of the turbines.
The wind farm site is located in southern Austria, in the tri-border area of Carinthia, Styria, and Slovenia, on a forested ridge with elevations between 1240 and 1430 metres.
First construction works are scheduled to start at the end of 2025. The civil works will take place in stages, with the installation and commissioning of the wind turbines planned for 2027.
The N163 turbines will be installed at two different hub heights. Four turbines will be installed on 118-metre steel tube towers, while three others will be mounted on hybrid towers with a hub height of 164 metres.
