Nordex awarded contracts for 148 MW in Argentina
Successful entry into the new growth market of Latin America
Hamburg, 3 January 2017. With the award of two contracts for the
construction of wind farms with a combined capacity of 148 megawatt, the
Nordex Group has successfully entered the new growth market Argentina in
December. 32 AW 125/3000 turbines are to be installed for the "La
Castellana" project, while the "Archiras" project entails 15 turbines of
the same type. Construction is to commence in the fourth quarter of 2017
for expected completion in summer 2018.
In both cases, Nordex will be installing the wind farms for its new
customer Central Puerto, a utility which is the most important private
generation company in Argentine, and has been primarily operating
conventional and hydraulic power stations since its establishment in 1992.
The contracts are the result of the first tender for delivery contracts for
"green electricity" in Argentina. In October 2016, the government awarded
contracts for a total capacity of more than 1.1 gigawatts (GW), most of
which were for wind power projects (700 MW). In a second call for tenders
in November, contracts for a further 600 MW, including 400 MW for wind
power, were awarded.
About the Nordex Group
The Group has installed wind power capacity of around 20 GW in over 25
markets. In 2015, Nordex and Acciona Windpower recorded combined sales of
EUR 3.4 billion. The Company currently has more than 5,000 employees. The
production network comprises plants in Germany, Spain, Brazil, the United
States and India. The product range primarily concentrates on onshore
turbines in the 1.5 - 3.6 MW class addressing the requirements of developed
as well as emerging markets.
