Nordex has won two turnkey wind turbine supply deals in Pakistan totalling 100MW.
The German manufacturer will deliver 40 N100/2500 machines (pictured) to projects by Yunus Energy Limited and Metro Power Company Limited in the province of Sindh.
Hot climate versions of the turbines designed to operate in temperatures of up to 45C will be used, Nordex said.
Construction will start in the spring with both projects slated to go live in summer 2016. Nordex will cover servicing for the farms for 10 years.
Local site preparations including work on the foundations, access roads and cabling will be handled by Nordex partner Descon Engineering of Lahore.
Nordex has to date completed projects in consortium with Descon with a combined volume of 150MW in Pakistan.
Metro Power chief executive Danish Iqbal said: “With this contract, we have opted for a strong vendor with German machinery and a solid track record of EPC in Pakistan and worldwide.”
Nordex board member Lars Bondo Krogsgaard added: “We will be using the currently strong momentum in the emerging markets to expand our business here.”
