Nordex wind turbines

Valorem has selected the Nordex Group to supply 57 N163/5.X turbines for two projects in Finland. The orders also include a premium plus service contract for 35 years.

Nordex Group will supply 30 N163/5.X turbines of the Delta4000 series for the Kalistanneva wind power farm.

Valorem sold the wind energy project farm to a Finnish consortium comprised of HELEN Oy and the Bank of Alands’s Wind Power Fund.

The Nordex Group is also supplying 27 N163/5.X turbines to the Matkussaari wind farm. Here, AIP Management provides flexible long-term financing in partnership with Valorem. Valorem has developed, will build and operate the wind farm. Both wind farms are located in the Ostrobothnia region.

The Kalistanneva and Matkussaari wind farms form part of the larger Viiatti project in Finland. Nordex said infrastructure works will start in spring 2022. The turbines will be delivered and installed 2024 on tubular steel towers with a hub height of 148 metres and equipped as a cold climate variant with a capacity of 5.5 MW.

Both wind farms will generate approximately 1 TWh of clean electricity, equivalent to a good 1.2 percent of Finland’s annual electricity consumption.

The VALOREM group manages more than 550 MW in production and has a portfolio of more than 5 GW of in-development projects.
