Nordex has received a 255MW turbine order for a wind farm in Estonia, from Enefit Green.
The agreement comprises the supply of 38 N163/6.X turbines for the Sopi 2, Sopi 2 and Tootsi wind farms.
It also includes an agreement for Nordex to service and maintain the turbines for a period of 30 years.
The wind farms are scheduled to go into operation at the end of 2024.
At the end of 2022, Nordex was successful in a public tender and awarded the order by Enefit Green, an Estonian headquartered renewable energy developer.
Sopi 1, Sopi 2 and Tootsi are being built in the municipality of Nord Pärnu.
The Sopi-Tootsi wind farm cluster, with N163/6.X turbines, will be the most powerful wind project in the Baltic states to date, Nordex stated.
Projected annual electricity production from the cluster is roughly 700 gigawatt-hours.
Chairman of the Management Board of Enefit Green Aavo Kärmas said: “Sopi-Tootsi Wind Farm will be the most modern and powerful renewable energy production area in Estonia and the Baltic States and will nearly double the current amount of wind energy produced in Estonia.
“Building the wind farm in good cooperation with our partners is an important step towards renewable energy target of Estonia and providing affordable green electricity to the market.”
Patxi Landa, chief sales officer of Nordex, added: “We are very pleased to be working with Enefit Green again.
“The 255MW wind farm will cover more than 8% of the electricity consumed in Estonia.
“Enefit is acquiring our latest and most powerful technology.
“At the same time the order is a huge demonstration of confidence in the joint partnership between our two companies.”
Nordex last supplied a wind farm in Estonia, which is 18MW, in 2004.
