Nordex secures orders for 247 MW wind turbines from Canada and reaches 1 GW of wind energy sales in North America in 2024

Nordex’s order intake for North America increased by 350% compared to the previous year. At the end of December, Nordex Group received orders for 36 N163/6.X wind turbines for projects in Canada.

The Delta4000 series wind turbines are destined for wind farms in Nova Scotia. Nordex Group will deliver the wind turbines, each with a nominal output of 7 MW mounted on 118-metre tubular steel towers, in spring 2026. To ensure high availability during the cold Nova Scotia winter, the wind turbines will be delivered as cold-weather variants and some will be equipped with Nordex’ advanced anti-icing system for the rotor blades.

“With these new orders, the Nordex Group has surpassed 1 GW of sales in North America in 2024. This 350% increase over the previous year demonstrates Nordex’s continued growth in the North American market. As we ramp up production at our West Branch, Iowa, factory in 2025, that success is well positioned to continue,” says Manav Sharma, CEO of Nordex Group’s North America Division.

The names of the customers and the names of the wind farms have not been disclosed.

The Group has installed more than 53 GW of wind power capacity in more than 40 markets throughout its corporate history and generated consolidated sales of around €6.5 billion in 2023. The company currently has more than 10,200 employees and the Group’s manufacturing network includes factories in Germany, Spain, Brazil, India, the US and Mexico. Nordex’s product portfolio currently focuses on 4 to 6 MW+ onshore turbines that are designed to meet the market requirements of countries with limited space availability and regions with limited grid capacity.
