Hamburg based Nordex Group has received two orders from the Finnish subsidiary of Falck Renewables for 10 turbines totalling 59 MW in Finland. Five N163/5.X turbines are to be delivered for the Mustalamminmäki and “Koiramäki” projects respectively. The two orders also include a Service contract for maintenance of the turbines covering a period of ten years. Both wind farms are being built in the municipality of Karstula in central Finland. The Nordex Group will install the turbines on tubular steel towers with a hub height of 148 metres as of summer 2023. Due to the harsh weather conditions there the turbines will be supplied in the cold climate version and with the Nordex Advanced Anti-Icing-System for the rotor blades. A joint venture between Macquarie Asset Management’s Green Investment Group and Hydro Rein has also placed an order with the Nordex Group for the supply and installation of 80 N163/5.X turbines for the “Feijão” wind farm in Brazil. The order also includes a Premium Service for the turbines covering a period of 20 years. The 456 MW wind farm will be built in the states of Piauí and Pernambuco in the north-east of Brazil. The Nordex Group will be supplying and installing the 80 N163 turbines as of autumn 2023 on concrete towers with a hub height of 120 metres. The wind farm will start operation in spring 2024. The wind farm is part of the renewable energy project known as “Feijão” – a combined wind and solar energy project by the Green Investment Group and Hydro Rein with a total capacity of 586 MW. The clean energy produced will be supplied by the joint venture to Hydro’s aluminium refinery Alunorte and Hydro Paragominas the company’s bauxite mine on the basis of a long-term power purchase agreement.
