EnBW and Nordex Extend Framework Agreement: EnBW Relies on Modern N175 Turbines in Lower Saxony - Nordex Share Reaches New Yearly High

Hamburg/Stuttgart - The Nordex Group has received an order from EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG for the delivery and installation of ten N175/6.X wind turbines with a total capacity of 68 megawatts.

The turbines will be installed on concrete hybrid towers with a hub height of 179 meters at the Derental-Lauenförde wind farm in the Holzminden district of Lower Saxony. Construction is scheduled to begin in April 2027, with commissioning of the final turbine planned for September of the same year.

The order also includes turbine servicing and is part of an extended framework agreement between Nordex and EnBW, which was last updated in the summer of 2025.

“For the Derental-Lauenförde wind farm, EnBW has chosen our advanced N175/6.X turbines for the first time. We appreciate this opportunity very much. The turbines are specifically designed for locations with lower wind speeds and, with a hub height of 179 meters, ensure very high yields,” said José Luis Blanco, CEO of the Nordex Group.

Peter Heydecker, Member of the Board for Sustainable Generation Infrastructure at EnBW, added: “EnBW and Nordex have already implemented numerous projects together. With the current acceleration of approvals, there is also a growing demand for turbines to successfully advance the energy transition.”

To date, the Nordex Group has installed around 57 gigawatts of wind power capacity in over 40 markets and achieved group sales of €7.3 billion in 2024. EnBW plans to invest around €50 billion by 2030, roughly 85 percent of it in Germany. By then, approximately 80 percent of EnBW’s generation portfolio is to come from renewable energy sources.

Today, the Nordex share price is up more than four percent, reaching a new yearly high of €27.96.
