Nordex to install 55.3 MW in Turkey

The wind power specialist will be installing 22 units of the N117/2400 Generation Gamma for its customer Sancak Enerji at the “Yahyali” wind farm. In addition, it is supplying its regular customer Dost Enerji with one N90/2500 turbine to enlarge the “Geres” wind farm.

The “Yahyali” project is being executed in Central Anatolia. With an average wind speed of 6.6 m/s, the expected annual energy yield comes to around 130 million kWh. Specially designed for such conditions, the N117/2400 will achieve an above-average capacity factor of some 36 percent at this site. A five-year premium service contract has been signed for the “Yahyali” wind farm and will take effect upon completion of the project.

The “Geres” wind farm is located close to the town of Manisa in Western Anatolia. The N90/2500 turbine will be enlarging the existing wind farm comprising eleven N90/2500 turbines installed for Dost Enerji in June 2014.
