A utility commissioned the Nordex Group end of 2022 to supply and install ten N149/4.X turbines for a wind farm in North-Rhine Westphalia, Germany. The order also includes a service contract for maintenance of the 45 MW wind farm for a period of 20 years.
Commissioning of the first 4.5 MW turbines is scheduled for autumn 2023. The turbines are to be equipped with a shadow flicker module to prevent shadows and will run at a reduced sound level at night. In order to protect bats, a bat module stops the turbines when these animals are active. The name of the customer and of the project are undisclosed.
