Nordex will be supplying Frodsham Wind Farm Limited in UK, owned by Peel Energy and Belltown Power, with 19 N90/2650 wind turbines. This version of the N90/2500 Gamma wind turbine has been especially developed for the Frodsham project.
Originally designed to accommodate 21 turbines, the wind farm is located on the Frodsham Marshes roughly 12 kilometres north-east of Chester. The scheme was redesigned and the number of turbines reduced following consultation with the local community and nature conservation experts. To ensure that the planned total capacity of at least 50MW could still be achieved, Nordex has developed an exclusive higher-output version of the N90/2500 for this project. As a result, the wind farm will have a certified output of 50.35MW. Construction work at Frodsham commenced in April 2015, with the delivery of the initial turbines scheduled for the second quarter of 2016.
