Subtitle: Tektug Elektrik to build 27.5 MW project with N100 turbines
Hamburg (euro adhoc) - The turbine manufacturer Nordex has received an order to
supply and install the "Sincik" wind farm. The customer is the Tektug Elektrik
Group, which specialises in sustainable energy projects and already operates
several hydroelectric power stations. The wind farm will consist of eleven large
N100/2500 turbines, which are especially designed for sites with medium wind
speeds.
Nordex plans to start installation work in eastern Turkey as soon as autumn
2012. The wind farm is located at an altitude of 1500 metres on a mountain ridge
near the city of Adiyaman. The average annual speed prevailing here is 6.9 m/s.
Under these conditions the turbines are able to generate an annual yield of 60
GWh.
Nordex will be coordinating the local construction work through its Turkish
subsidiary, which will later take charge of servicing the machines. In order to
create as much local value added as possible, the turbine manufacturer will be
procuring its towers from Ciltug A.S., a well known 40 year old hydro mechanical
and electro mechanical equipment manufacturer, which belongs to the Tektug
Group.
"This order is a major success in the growing Turkish market as this is the
first wind project for Tektug Elektrik. And our new customer has ambitious plans
to expand. In addition to this, our pilot project is located in the East of
Anatolia. This also offers opportunities for follow-up projects," says Ayhan
Gök, Managing Director of Nordex Turkey.
