The Nordex Group recorded order intake of 1,089.8MW in the second quarter of 2018 (previous year: 565.5MW). At the end of the first half of 2018, the Group achieved order intake of a total of around 2.1 gigawatts (H1/2017: 933MW) in project business (without service).
Performance in the second quarter was particularly underpinned by demand in Brazil, where the Group obtained the largest single order (595MW) in its history. Together with a further order for 123MW, Brazil was the largest individual market (718MW) for the Group. In addition, an order for 147MW was gained in South Africa. This is also reflected in new business by turbine type, with the AW3000 accounting for roughly 88 percent of order intake.
