Hamburg, 7 July 2021. Of the potential orders for 1 GW from Australia announced as on 14 June 2021 via an ad-hoc notification, the Nordex Group can confirm the order for the first project “MacIntyre” for 923 MW as a firm order intake for July 2021. The subsidiary of its customer Acciona Energía, Acciona Energía Australia Global PTY LTD, has ordered 162 Nordex N163/5.X turbines of the Delta4000 series.

The wind farm complex southwest of Warwick in the Australian state of Queensland consists of the “MacIntyre” project with a capacity of approx. 923 MW and the “Karara” wind farm with approx. 102.6 MW. The total output of both wind farms amounts to 1,026 MW, of which the Nordex Group now has received the turbine production order for “MacIntyre”.

The Nordex Group will supply the N163 turbines in the operating mode of 5.7 MW and they will be installed on tubular steel towers with a hub height of 148 metres.
