Nordex with above-average growth in Germany
28.08.2013 / 11:37

Return to double-digit market share / success underpinned by the N117/2400
onshore turbine
Hamburg, 28 August 2013. The German wind power market is continuing to grow
this year, expanding by almost 14%. Against this backdrop, turbine
manufacturer Nordex has managed to more than double its sales volume in
Germany, installing wind farms with a combined capacity of a good 109
megawatts in the first half of 2013. Measured in terms of new installed
capacity onshore, Nordex has thus achieved a double-digit share of the
market of around 11% for the first time again.
'Our above-average performance in Germany is chiefly due to our products,
which provide the ideal answer to the growing onshore demand,' explains
Management Board member Lars Bondo Krogsgaard. Half of the turbines
assembled in the first half of the year were N117/2400s, which Nordex has
been series-producing since 2012. With its greater rotor diameter, this
model permits substantially more economical use of weaker wind locations.
Looking forward, wind-produced electricity must become even cheaper and it
is with this in mind that Nordex has developed a new generation of turbines
ensuring more efficient electricity production even at locations
characterised by stronger winds. Says Krogsgaard: 'It is foreseeable that
many of our customers will be developing more areas in coastal regions or
at elevated locations. That is why it was important for us to install the
first new Delta Generation turbines in Schleswig-Holstein in the first half
of 2013, meaning that we can now devote all our attention to sales and
marketing.'
