The total value of new orders rose to EUR 2.0 billion (Q3/2024: EUR 1.6 billion), spanning 16 countries and various turbine variants.

Production figures

In Q3/2025, Nordex produced 2,541 MW of turbines, a 22.9 percent increase versus Q3/2024 (2,067 MW). Rotor blade output declined by 24.7 percent to 1,122 units (3Q/2024: 1,490 units), due to temporary delays at a supplier factory in Türkiye.

Of the installed capacity 82 percent was in Europe, 10 percent in “Rest of the World”, 6 percent in North America and 2 percent in Latin America.

Segment reporting

Sales in the Projects segment were at around EUR 1.5 billion in the third quarter of the year, in line with the prior year (3Q/2024: EUR 1.5 billion), reflecting seasonal dynamics and temporary supplier related delays in Türkiye. The sales in Service segment grew by 9.2 percent to EUR 219.2 million (3Q/2024: EUR 200.7 million).

As of the end of September 2025, total assets remained stable at approximately EUR 5.9 billion, consistent with year-end 2024. The equity ratio improved to 18.3 percent (31 December 2024; 17.7 percent). Cash and cash equivalents rose to EUR 1,378.1 million (31 December 2024: EUR 1,151.4 million), resulting in net cash position of EUR 1,073.0 million (31 December 2024: EUR 848.2 million).
