Nordex once again market leader in Turkey

Manufacturer achieves 25 percent market share

Hamburg, 9 March 2017. In 2016 Nordex consolidated its position as market leader in Turkey. With some 350 megawatts the manufacturer accounted for a good 25 percent of the capacity installed in 2016.

In 2016 the Sales division rounded off the good installation figures in Turkey with a strong result in terms of new business. With order receipts of EUR 220 million, Nordex followed up on its successes from the previous years. The company is also leader with regard to wind farms currently under construction: according to the Turkish Wind Energy Association (TWEA), Nordex accounts for 298 MW of the approx. 860 MW currently being installed, equating to a share of 34 percent.

« Thanks to our early market entry in Turkey we have established strong relationships to our customers and are now linked with the leading players. Our partners appreciate our decades of experience as an international manufacturer, » says Ibrahim Oezarslan, Nordex CEO Turkey & Middle East.
