With a capacity of 21.6 MW, the wind farm will consist of nine N117/2400 multi-MW turbines mounted on top of 120-metre high towers.
This is the first call-off under a framework agreement signed in June for the delivery of up to 111 turbines.
“The swift progress made in the partnership venture with Taaleritehdas underscores the professional approach taken by our partner. At the same time, this is a further key order for our N117 turbine, whose quality we are now also able to demonstrate in Scandinavia,” said Nordex Management Board member Lars Bondo Krogsgaard.
The Hamburg-based company will be installing the turbines in South-West Finland, where mean wind speeds of 7.5 m/s prevail.
Thanks to the specific configuration of the N117 turbines, the wind farm will generate an above-average annual yield of up to 100 GWh, thus achieving a capacity factor of around 50 percent. Installation is to commence in spring 2013.
