The Nordex Group has strengthened its activities in Greece and opened a sales office in Athens in the summer of 2018. With this newly established focus strategy and its current expansion of the local presence, Nordex is able to react more directly to customer demands and handle projects in Greece even more efficiently.

Recently, the group received its first order from Luxembourg, for a 23 MW project. The manufacturer will be supplying seven N131/3300 turbines for the “Wincrange” wind farm.

Furthermore, the group has achieved another major success in Italy. A project developer has opted for seven N149/4.0-4.5 turbines for a wind farm. A Premium Service Agreement for a period of two years is also part of the contract.

Recently, the company’s German counterpart Senvion secured a 30 MW contract with Renexia for the first offshore wind farm in the Italian Mediterranean Sea. The wind farm will feature ten Senvion 3.0M122 turbines, installed on monopile foundations in a water depth ranging from 3 to 18 meters.
