Nordex awarded contract for wind farm in Greece

Hamburg, Germany - Nordex has been awarded a contract for the delivery of 12 N90/2500 multi-megawatt turbines to a Greek wind farm developer.

The first few turbines are to be delivered and installed this autumn, with the entire 30 MW wind farm to go on line by mid 2011.

The wind farm is located close to the coast in North Greece, where wind speeds of 7 meters a second prevail. The "high-speed" turbine versions will be generating an annual yield of 66,000 megawatt/hours, sufficient to supply 14,500 households with electricity while avoiding emissions of more than 65,000 tons of carbon dioxide.
