Company Information

Subtitle: - 87.5 MW to be added at two locations in USA’s leading
state for wind energy - Repeat orders for Nordex’ proven N100/2500
from RPM Access

Hamburg, November 18, 2011 (euro adhoc) - Nordex USA, Inc. today
announced two new orders from wind farm developer RPM Access, LLC for
their Hawkeye Wind Farm in Fayette County and Rippey Wind Farm in
Green County. The new orders for 35 N100/2500 increase Nordex´
capacity in Iowa to 130 MW, enough to generate electricity for 39,000
homes.

The power from the two new wind farms has been purchased by Central
Iowa Power Cooperative under a long term agreement. They will join
the company´s Elk Wind Farm in Delaware County where installation and
commissioning of 17 Nordex N100/2500 have recently been completed.
The success of that project was critical to the RPM Access decision
to again choose Nordex wind turbines.

"Nordex has consistently demonstrated the ability to act quickly,
flexibly and responsively. Our trust in them and in the quality of
their proven 2.5 MW product platform convinced us that they were the
right turbine supply partner for these important projects." commented
Stephen Dryden, Principal of RPM Access.

Construction work for both locations has already begun with turbine
delivery scheduled for May 2012 for Rippey and June for Hawkeye.
Commercial operation for both projects is slated to begin by October
2012. The turbine nacelles will be produced at Nordex´ year-old plant
in Jonesboro, Arkansas. The projects will create 60-70 jobs during
the construction and on-going full-time employment for another 6-8,
as the contract calls for delivery, installation, commissioning and
testing of the turbines, along with a 12-year Premium Service
contract. In recognition of the harsh winter conditions in the area,
the turbines will include Nordex´ cold climate package.

"It is especially rewarding to conclude this second set of contracts
with RPM Access, one of the Midwest´s leading project developers,"
said Ralf Sigrist, President & CEO of Nordex USA, Inc. "We appreciate
their vote of confidence in our technology, our reliability, and our
capabilities as a company. We´re also proud to become an even larger
contributor to Iowa´s leadership position as first in the nation with
20% of all its electricity generated from wind."

The Hawkeye Wind Farm, with 15 turbines and capacity of 37.5 MW, is
about 50 miles northeast of Waterloo, Iowa. Rippey Wind Farm, with 20
turbines and capacity of 50 MW is about 50 miles northwest of Des
Moines, Iowa.

By the end of 2011 Nordex will have installed 447.5 MW of its 2.5 MW
turbines in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Colorado,
Idaho and Iowa and more than 3,850 MW of such turbines worldwide
since the year 2001.
