Nordex Group has been awarded a contract by Enefit Green AS to deliver turbines for the 72MW Tolpanvaara onshore wind farm complex in Finland.
The agreement is for the supply, installation and commissioning of 13 Nordex N163/5.X turbines from the Delta4000 technology platform and equipped with the company’s anti-icing system.
It also includes a 30-year long-term premium service agreement.
The Tolpanvaara project is located in Northern Ostrobothnia, in the Pudasjärvi municipality about 700km north of Helsinki.
Installation of the turbines is planned for the summer of 2023.
Nordex Group chief sales officer Patxi Landa said: “With this order we are celebrating an important landmark of over 1.5 GW of sold capacity in Finland with the Delta4000 platform alone and over 2 GW in total in the Finnish market, since we started our operations there in 2011.
“We are marking this achievement with yet another valued new customer in Enefit Green AS and with our perfectly-suited N163/5.X technology with cold climate options.”
Enefit Green head of wind development Lauri Ulm said: “Enefit Green is aiming to increase its electricity generation capacity 2,3fold by 2025 and building new wind parks is a key component of this growth.
“Having a reliable partner like Nordex for supplying the turbines and maintaining the wind park ensures both completing the construction as well as continuity of production from Tolpanvaara wind park. We are happy to have Nordex professional team on board.”
