Nordex has received its first contract from Lithuania to supply eight N117/3000 turbines for the Jurbarkas wind farm in the spring of 2015. The wind farm is located close to the town of the same name in an agricultural region in the western part of the country around 50km from the Baltic Sea. It is characterised by average wind speeds of more than 7m/s, making the N117/3000 Generation Delta turbines on 120m towers the perfect choice. Starting in November 2015, the 24MW wind farm will be producing at least 80GWh of clean electricity. The contract also includes the provision of a Premium Service by Nordex over 15 years. Accordingly, Nordex will be establishing a service point close to the wind farm.

âI am thrilled that we have now also entered the Lithuanian market. What is particularly pleasing is that we will again be installing N117/3000 Generation Delta turbinesâ?, says Lars Bondo Krogsgaard, a member of Nordexâs Management Board. âWe believe Nordex offers with the N117/3000 turbine the right choice for our site with a good ratio of price versus estimated production. Iâd like to thank Nordex for their good customer attitude and fluent negotiations during the project run-in phaseâ?, says Aleksandr Spiridonov, managing director of Eurakras.
