Company Information

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - The United Kingdom has the best wind conditions anywhere
in Europe. Even so, a new trend in favour of inland wind farms on industrial or
so-called "brown-field" sites is emerging in this country as well. "We are
registering heightened interest on the part of customers in installing wind
power stations close to industrial consumers. Of course, due to the proximity to
built-up areas, this particularly also calls for compliance with low noise
emission levels," says Lars Bondo Krogsgaard, a member of Nordex's Management
Board. 

Following on from its past success on industrial sites at Newport, Eye Airfield,
the Port of Liverpool, Hull, Loftsome Bridge and Glaxosmithkline's
pharmaceutical production site at Irvine in Scotland, the wind turbine
manufacturer has recently received further two contracts for its medium-wind
system N100/2500 from the United Kingdom. Nordex will be installing the first
three wind farms for utility Severn Trent Water PLC in Central England in 2013
under a single supply contract, together with a fifteen year maintenance
agreement. A further supply contract has been awarded by Bristol City Council at
Avonmouth Docks. The council wants to improve its track record in environmental
protection and also reduce its own electricity costs with a wind power system. 

All told, the two contracts account for a capacity of 15 megawatts. Explains
Krogsgaard: "Measured in terms of the contracts of a total volume of more than
130 MW which we have received from the United Kingdom this year, this doubtless
marks only the beginning of an interesting new development."
