DGAP-News: Nordex SE / Key word(s): Incoming Orders2015-09-10 / 08:49---------------------------------------------------------------------Hamburg, 10 September. Nordex has made a successful start to the secondhalf of the year. In July and August the company obtained orders in Germanyfor 102 turbines with a capacity totalling more than 260 megawatts. Thebestseller at 65 units was the light-wind N117/2400 turbine.Apart from the established products in the Gamma series, with 27 turbinessold the Delta machines also attracted the interest of customers. As oneexample of this, GEO mbH, a project developer, asked Nordex to supply eightN100/3000 for the Brunsbüttel wind farm in Schleswig-Holstein. At the sitethe strong-wind turbine from the Delta series is the ideal model fromNordex's product portfolio for this site.When it comes to the distribution of Nordex turbines among the federalstates, it is Baden-Württemberg, where Nordex sales have increasedsignificantly, that stands out. Following last year's slump, when theentire sector installed fewer than ten turbines there, this year Nordex hasobtained orders for four projects with altogether 25 turbines, meaning thatthe company has increased its sales in Baden-Württemberg by a multiple ofseven at one fell swoop. In August Nordex wrapped up the largest of theseprojects, the "Ochsenberg" wind farm with a total of 14 N117/2400 turbines."Ochsenberg" is being developed by Denker & Wulf AG, a wind farm developer,who will operate the turbines together with Blauwald GmbH & Co KG, a branchof the Merckle GmbH Group.Apart from delivery and installation of the turbines, all orders alsoinclude at least 15 years of service on the basis of a Premium servicecontract. With its newly opened service offices in Leipzig and Würzburg anda further six new service points, the manufacturer is now even closer tothe market for service work on the wind farms and is therefore able to meetthe requirements of its customers rapidly and flexibly.      Siegbert Pump, Head of Sales in Germany, also takes a positive view offuture developments: "The upsurge after the summer break can give usfurther impetus in the coming months as the German government is standingby its plans for expanding the use of onshore wind." The Federal Ministryfor Economics and Energy plans a net annual increase of 2,500 megawatts.Nordex - a profileAs a technological leader among suppliers of megawatt turbines, Nordexbenefits particularly from the global trend towards large wind turbines.The Generation Gamma product range comprises the N90/2500, N100/2500 andthe N117/2400, which is one of the most efficient inland series turbines.To date more than 4,000 turbines from this platform have been produced.With Generation Delta Nordex is now offering the fourth turbine generationof the proven multi-megawatt platform (N100/3300, N117/3000, N131/3000).Overall, the company, which this year celebrates its 30th anniversary, hasinstalled more than 6,000 turbines with a capacity of more than 10,000megawatts around the world With exports accounting for around 70 percent ofits business, Nordex SE also has a strong position in internationalhigh-growth regions.
