Installation of the wind turbines will start during the fourth quarter of 2010 and the wind energy project is expected to be completed by the beginning of 2011.
“Vestas has been the perfect partner for us for several years, and we look forward to further strengthening our business relations,” states Carsten Paatsch, Managing Director of Nordwind Handels-GmbH & Co. KG.
Nordwind Handels GmbH & Co. KG, based in Beiersdorf-Freudenberg, is one of Vestas’ largest customers in Germany. Founded in 2003, Nordwind has so far only installed Vestas wind turbines.
“We are very satisfied with this new contract in Germany, which confirms our positive expectations for the German wind energy market. We appreciate the ongoing cooperation with our business partner Nordwind, and we are pleased with their confidence in Vestas’ technology,” says Hans Jørn Rieks, President of Vestas Central Europe.
Vestas is the world leader in delivering Wind Energy. Vestas have already installed over 39,000 wind turbines in 63 countries on five continents. In 2008, Vestas installed a new turbine every three hours worldwide, generating more than 60 million MWh a year, enough power to provide electricity for every household in a country the size of Spain with its population of 45 million. That is why Vestas is No. 1 in Modern Energy.
