Nordex Group receives 35 MW order for wind farm in the Sauerland region in Germany

© Nordex SEHamburg (renewablepress) - At the end of March, the Nordex Group received an order from STAWAG Energie GmbH, a subsidiary of STAWAG – Stadt- und Städteregionswerke Aachen AG, for five N163/6.X wind turbines. The turbines, with a hub height of 164 meters, are intended for the 35 MW Frettertal wind farm in the municipality of Finnentrop (Olpe district) in the Sauerland region. The contract with this long-standing customer also includes a Premium Service for the turbines over a period of 20 years.
The installation of the N163/6.X turbines is scheduled to begin in summer 2027, with commissioning planned for early 2028.
The topography at the site is characterized by an interplay of deep-cut valleys and ridges. "This favors the use of the N163/6.X turbines with a 164-meter hub height, as the tall towers provide stable wind conditions at rotor height – a decisive factor for high full-load hours," says Felipe Villalon Waldburg-Zeil, Director Sales Region Central at the Nordex Group. He adds: "We are very pleased about the order from STAWAG. The Frettertal wind farm will specifically strengthen a region in the Sauerland where the expansion of wind energy has so far been relatively modest, but thanks to modern, efficient turbine technology holds great potential."
