Hamburg, Germany - In addition to the recently reported projects from Spain and Scotland, the wind turbine manufacturer Nordex has secured further projects in Europe for more than 195 MW in recent weeks.

Twelve different customers - including project developers, utilities and citizen wind farms - from Belgium, the Netherlands, Greece, France, Germany and Croatia, have ordered N100/3000, N117/3600, N117/3900, N131/3300 and N149/4.0-4.5 turbines. According to Nordex, construction of the projects will start in 2019 and 2020.

Globally, the N149/4.0-4.5 turbine of the latest turbine platform Delta4000 has once again been the "bestseller" in recent weeks.

Of this, 819 MW were for projects in Europe, 806 MW in North America and 328 MW across Latin America and Australia.

The two wind farms are to be built in the province of Albacete in Castilla-La Mancha, approximately 300 kilometres to the south-east of Madrid.
