Subtitle: Contract awarded for two wind farms in Ireland

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - Hamburg, 27 July 2012. Nordex has been awarded
a contract for the delivery and assembly of seven high-wind turbines
for the Irish "Glenough 2" and "Gibbett Hill" projects. "Glenough 2"
entails an extension to an existing 32.5 MW wind farm, which Nordex
previously also built, while "Gibbett Hill" is a new 15 MW wind farm.
The two projects are located in the south of the Republic of Ireland
at windy elevated sites.

In both cases, the customer, wind farm developer ABO Wind, has opted
for the N90/2500 turbine, which is optimally configured for these
locations with wind speeds of approximately 9 m/s. The annual yield
of the seven turbines has been calculated at around 70 GWh,
translating into an above-average capacity factor of a good 45
percent.

Wiesbaden-based project developer ABO Wind has been working closely
with Nordex for many years. "In view of our favourable experience
with the company and its products, we have decided to also install
these turbines in Ireland together with Nordex," says Dr. Jochen Ahn,
a member of the management Board of ABO Wind AG and its founder.
Together with the recent projects, the installed capacity of all wind
farms which ABO Wind has installed in Ireland using Nordex turbines
will come to 70 megawatts. "Alongside Germany and France, Ireland
figures amongst ABO Wind's most important markets," he adds.

Work on the project is to be completed in December 2012 (Glenough 2)
and May 2013, respectively. The order also includes a premium-service
contract for an initial period of five years.

Jochen Ahn and Matthias Bockholt established the company in
