The agreements for O&M service cover the entire 384 MW Falck Renewables Nordex portfolio highlighting improved terms and conditions and 5 years clear visibility
Milan, Hamburg (renewablepress) - Falck Renewables renewed the service contracts with the Nordex Group for 14 of its wind farms in Europe entering into a five year frame agreement covering the entire Falck Renewables portfolio using Nordex wind technology. The maintenance contract spans 159 turbines of the 2 to 2.5 MW series installed between 2007 and 2016 present in Great Britain, France and Italy.
