In Poland, the German group Nordex will supply turbines to the VSB group for a 41.6MW wind farm in Silesia.

An order for 13 turbines

In Poland, Nordex will supply and install a wind farm powered by 13 N117/3600 turbines. The order also includes Premium service for the turbines covering a period of 20 years. The Nordex Group will supply the turbines on tubular steel towers with a hub height of 134 meters.

The turbines will be operated with a nominal power of 3.2MW. Turbine installation is expected to begin in early 2024 with commissioning to follow in the summer. From 2021, the VSB Group placed an order with the Nordex Group for the supply of turbines for the 42.6MW wind farm in Baranów-Rychtal.
