Aquila Clean Energy has placed an order with Nordex for a further delivery of 24 turbines in Spain.
In addition to 21 units with a combined output of 124MW ordered for the Baza wind farm cluster in June 2024, the manufacturer will also supply additional N163/5.X machines with a total capacity of 141.6MW for this project.
This second order also includes a Premium Service contract with a term of 20 years.
From 2025, the Nordex Group will install the Delta4000 series turbines on 108-metre-high tubular steel towers.
The Baza cluster, located in the southern Spanish province of Granada, will thus ultimately consist of 45 N163/5.X models with a total nominal output of over 265MW following planned commissioning in 2026.
With the award of the first order in June 2024, both parties had agreed that Aquila Clean Energy would have the option to expand the total number of machines in the Baza cluster by up to 24 additional units by 31 August 2024.
Patxi Landa, chief sales officer at Nordex, said: “We are pleased that Aquila Clean Energy has fully exercised the additional option for the construction of the Baza wind farm cluster and has ordered a further 24 turbines from Nordex.
“This is a great incentive for us to successfully implement this extensive project in the interests of our regular customer, and to fulfil the trust placed in us.”
