© Nordex SE / U. MertensHamburg (renewablepress) - The Nordex Group has received two orders for a total of 109.3 MW in Sweden and Finland from its regular customer wpd. The Nordex Group is supplying ten N163/6.X turbines for the Tomasliden wind farm in Sweden. For the Finnish "Oulainen" project wpd placed an order with the Nordex Group for the delivery of seven N163/5.X turbines. Both orders also include a premium service contract for the maintenance of the turbines for 15 years with an extension option for a further five years.
The 68 MW "Tomasliden" wind farm - a wind project which comprises N163/6.X turbines for the first time in Sweden - is being built in Vesterbotten County, about 55 km west of Skeleftea.
