Nordex Group has secured three new orders in the United States, with a combined capacity exceeding 480 megawatts (MW). The contracts include the supply of 81 N163/5.X turbines, according to a press release issued on August 4, 2026. The names of the customers and the specific projects have not been disclosed, but the deliveries will be tailored to customer-specific requirements.
This announcement underscores Nordex's continued expansion in the U.S. wind energy market, a key region for the company's growth strategy. Manav Sharma, CEO of Nordex North America, commented, "These new orders reflect once again the trust our customers place in Nordex and in our ability to deliver and service projects reliably and efficiently. We are grateful for that confidence. Driven by strong customer partnerships, the dedicated execution and service capabilities of our teams, and our robust manufacturing capabilities, we are seeing continued momentum in this region."
The turbines for these projects will be manufactured at Nordex's production facility in Iowa, highlighting the company's commitment to local manufacturing and its ability to meet U.S. demand. This move is likely to have a positive impact on the local economy, creating and sustaining jobs in the region.
The significance of these orders extends beyond Nordex's immediate business. As the United States continues to transition toward renewable energy sources, the addition of over 480 MW of wind capacity will contribute to the nation's clean energy goals. Wind power is a crucial component of the country's energy mix, and projects like these help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.
Nordex Group has a long history in the wind industry, having commissioned more than 64 GW of wind power capacity in over 40 markets since 1985. In 2025, the company generated consolidated sales of approximately EUR 7.6 billion. With over 11,100 employees and manufacturing facilities in Germany, Spain, Brazil, India, and the USA, Nordex is a major player in the global wind turbine market. Its product portfolio focuses on onshore turbines in the 4 to 7 MW+ classes, designed for markets with limited space and constrained grid capacity.
The new orders are a testament to the reliability and efficiency of Nordex's turbine technology and services, which are supported by a global service network. This network ensures smooth operation and maintenance, providing customers with long-term confidence in their investments.
For the U.S. energy sector, this development signals continued growth in wind power installations, which is essential for meeting renewable portfolio standards and achieving energy independence. The projects will likely create jobs not only in manufacturing but also in transportation, construction, and maintenance, benefiting local communities.
Nordex SE is listed on the MDAX and TecDAX of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (ISIN: DE000A0D6554), reflecting its financial stability and market credibility. The company's ability to secure multiple large orders in a competitive market like the U.S. demonstrates its strong competitive position and the trust it has built with customers.
While specific details about the projects remain confidential, the overall impact of these orders is clear: they will bolster Nordex's market presence in North America, contribute to the U.S. renewable energy capacity, and support economic development in Iowa and beyond. As the world moves toward a more sustainable future, such investments are critical to ensuring a reliable and clean energy supply.
