Nordex has received an 80MW turbine order for a wind power project in Turkey.
The agreement is for the supply of 14 N163/5.X turbines for the Pelit project being developed by Borusan EnBW Enerji in the Sivas province.
Nordex will also service the turbines for 10 years.
The order follows a 36MW order Borusan EnBW Enerji placed with the Nordex for the Balabanli Extension 2 wind farm in December 2023, comprising six N163/5.X turbines.
The Pelit wind farm project is located on a mountain ridge, approximately 20 km northwest of the Sivas Gurun district.
Nordex will install a cold climate version of the turbines, which will be on tubular steel towers and have hub heights of 108 metres.
Borusan EnBW Enerji also ordered the Nordex Advanced Anti-icing System to reduce ice formation on the rotor blades.
Already this year, Nordex will deliver and install the six N163/5.X turbines from the contract awarded in 2023 for the Balabanli Extension 2 project near Tekirdag in the Thrace region of Turkey.
Ender Ozatay, Managing Director Nordex Turkey, said: “As the market leader since 2017, the Nordex Group is proud to partner once again with Borusan EnBW Enerji, the second biggest investor in installed capacity in Turkey.”
General Manager of Borusan EnBW Enerji, Enis Amasyalı, added: “Borusan EnBW Enerji is excited to embark on these transformative wind energy projects that signify our dedication to advancing renewable energy infrastructure in Turkey.
“These two projects increase our installed power from renewable energy to 934MW.”
