The Nordex Group has received an order for 105MW from Serbia, marking the company’s entry into the market.
The German manufacturer will supply 22 N149/4.X turbines from the Delta4000 series for the Krivaca wind farm.
Hardware will be rated at 4.8MW apiece.
The order also includes a service contract for the turbines covering a period of 25 years.
The wind farm, which is to be commissioned in 2023, was developed by the Austrian developer Ivicom and will be operated by the Serbian MK Group and the Slovenian ALFI Green Energy Fund.
Krivaca is located in the municipalities of Golubac, Kucevo and Veliko Gradiste in eastern Serbia, some 150 kilometres to the east of Belgrade. It will be the first wind farm in eastern Serbia.
Mihailo Jankovic, chief executive of the MK Group: “As a leader in green energy production in the Adriatic region we are further expanding in this field. Solo and in joint ventures we are developing wind power projects with a total capacity of 800 MW and solar power projects of 660 MW, which means investing EUR 1 billion in the next 5 years.”
Nordex chief sales officer Patxi Landa added: “We are pleased to take this first step into the very promising Serbian market with the Krivaca project.
“We are highly motivated in starting our collaboration with the Serbian MK Group and the Slovenian ALFI Green and look forward to supporting them in their sustainable electricity production with our technology.”
