* Phase II expansion of Beebe Community Wind Project in Michigan
* 19 N117/2400 wind turbines to be added
* Total wind farm capacity of 127.2 MW, capable of powering about 40,000
homes
Hamburg, 16 July 2013. Nordex USA, Inc. will be supplying 19 wind turbines
to Exelon Wind, LLC for the next phase of the Beebe Community Wind Project
in Gratiot County, Michigan. The first phase, which was completed in
December 2012, features 34 of Nordex' N117/2400 turbines and was the first
major project worldwide to use the machines, specifically designed for
light wind conditions. Today more than 260 turbines of this type are
installed or currently under construction.
The 2.4 MW turbines, on 91 meter towers, will be located near Ithaca,
Michigan, about 45 miles north of the state capital of Lansing. The
electricity generated by the project, sufficient to power approximately
14,000 homes, will be supplied to load in Michigan.
Ralf Sigrist, President&CEO of Nordex USA, Inc. commented, 'It is always
gratifying to be awarded repeat business from a valued customer such as
Exelon Wind. It's especially rewarding for us to have our respected
N117/2400 deployed in a location so well-suited to benefit from its
increased yields.'
Turbine deliveries are expected to begin in May 2014. Nordex will be
responsible for delivery, commissioning and testing of the turbines and
will provide ongoing maintenance under a 20-year Premium Service contract.
Project completion and commercial operation are planned for late 2014.
Beebe Community Wind Farm is the first project that Nordex USA developed,
in a joint venture with the local developer who initiated the project.
Since 2009, Nordex USA has installed 646.6 MW of its multi-megawatt
turbines in locations across the country including Pennsylvania, Maryland,
Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Idaho, Colorado and Texas.
