Efficient technology and a reliable partnership are crucial for producing much needed renewable energy. In the open tender for our new wind farm, we were looking for a balance between the best possible technology, and financial feasibility. As a trusted manufacturer, Nordex fulfilled our expectations, and in cooperation we can bring green electricity to the market in 2024, already.”
