Company Information/Order intake

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - Nordex´s Scandinavian business is continuing
to grow. The wind turbine manufacturer has now signed a contract with
Midtfjellet Vindkraft, which is owned by utility Østfold Energi,
local utility Fitjar Kraftlag and the independent power producer
(IPP) Vardar, for the delivery and installation of 21 N90/2500 wind
turbines. The contract also includes a five-year premium service
agreement with an option for renewal by up to further ten years.

The "Midtfjellet" wind farm is being built on the Norwegian island of
Stord. Work on installing the 52.5 MW project is to commence in
summer 2012, with completion scheduled for 2013. At the site off the
Norwegian Atlantic coast, climatic conditions are relatively mild
thanks to the influence of the Gulf Stream, meaning that winter
temperatures rarely drop below -10 °C. Heavy turbulence on the hilly
and sparsely vegetated Midtfjellet plateau and good wind conditions
with speeds averaging 8.8 m/s call for very robust and proven
strong-wind turbines. Certified for wind class IEC 1, the N90/2500
turbine satisfies these requirements, promising an optimum yield. The
21 turbines will be able to generate over 170,000 MWh of clean
electricity per year.

Says Ole Vidar Lunde, Managing Director of Midtfjellet Vindkraft:
"Awarding Nordex as our turbine supplier is an important milestone
for the `Midtfjellet´ project. From all manufacturers in the
competition Nordex had the best offer, and we are looking forward to
close cooperation." "Midtfjellet is an ideal reference project for
Nordex in the Norwegian market. The new joint certificate system with
Sweden is expected to be implemented in January 2012 and could give
the market a real boost", comments Lars Bondo Krogsgaard, Chief Sales
Officer of Nordex SE.
