Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements on Goldwind, Verbund, Nordex, Fortescue, among others.
Goldwind Secures 108-MW Wind Project in Türkiye
Goldwind has signed an agreement to supply turbines for a 108-MW onshore wind project in Türkiye, representing a targeted investment in the country’s expanding renewable energy capacity. The project demonstrates a clear customer focus, offering developers reliable, high-efficiency turbine solutions tailored to local wind conditions and grid requirements. Goldwind will deploy innovative turbine technology incorporating advanced aerodynamics, smart control systems, and digital monitoring to optimise output and reduce operating costs. The customer benefits include higher energy yield, improved asset reliability, and lower lifecycle costs, supporting more predictable returns. The project will contribute clean electricity to the grid, cut carbon emissions, and enhance energy security, while reinforcing Goldwind’s strategy of expanding its international footprint through technology-led, customer-centric wind energy investments.
Verbund and Nordex Sign 700-MW Wind Turbine Agreement
Austria’s utility Verbund has agreed a 700-MW wind turbine supply deal with Nordex, marking a major investment in large-scale onshore wind capacity across key European markets. The agreement reflects a strong customer focus, with Nordex providing tailored turbine solutions, long-term service support, and high availability to meet Verbund’s generation and reliability targets. The deal leverages innovative Nordex turbine technology, including larger rotors, higher hub heights, and advanced digital condition monitoring to maximise energy yield in varied wind conditions. Customer benefits include improved project economics, higher annual energy production, and reduced operating risks. The partnership supports Verbund’s renewable growth strategy, accelerates decarbonisation, and strengthens Europe’s wind supply chain while enhancing clean power availability for consumers.
Fortescue Begins Construction of Nullagine Wind Project
Fortescue has started construction of the Nullagine wind project in Western Australia, marking a significant investment in renewable energy to support the decarbonisation of its operations. The project reflects a strong customer focus on supplying reliable, low-cost clean power for Fortescue’s mining and processing activities while reducing exposure to fuel price volatility. The development will deploy innovative onshore wind technology, advanced grid integration, and digital monitoring systems to maximise performance in remote conditions. Customer benefits include lower operational emissions, improved energy security, and long-term cost stability. Once operational, the Nullagine wind farm will contribute to Fortescue’s strategy of achieving net-zero operational emissions and accelerating the adoption of renewable energy across Australia’s resources sector.
