Subtitle: 80 MW wind farm to go on line near Port Elizabeth in 2014

Company Information/Company Information/Order intake

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - The Nordex Group's South African business is
continuing to perform well: after establishing a subsidiary in Cape
Town and receiving its first major contract, the wind turbine
manufacturer has now been awarded a contract for the delivery and
installation of an 80 MW wind farm. Under the contract, Nordex will
be supplying the "Red Cap Kouga" wind farm on a turn-key basis.
Scheduled to commence in April 2013, the work includes the
construction of the foundations and road access as well as cabling
and the transformer station.

In a next step, Nordex will be supplying 32 N90/2500 strong-wind
turbines and installing them at the coastal site, which is
characterised by mean wind speeds of around 9 m/s. "Thanks to the
good wind conditions and our turbines, which have been designed to
make the most of these conditions, the 80 MW "Red Cap Kouga" wind
farm will generate an above-average energy yield. In our view, it is
precisely this which offers the strongest argument in favour of the
continued future expansion of renewable energies. The goal must be to
produce clean electricity on a particularly sustainable and, hence,
economically viable basis," explains Lars Bondo Krogsgaard, a member
of Nordex's Management Board.

The customer and ultimate operator of the Kouga project is Red Cap
Kouga Wind Farm Pty. The owners of this project development company
include various corporations and public institutions committed to
regional economic development in South Africa. "In a nascent wind
market it was important to Red Cap that the turbine supplier selected
to partner with it in its first wind farm development had both a
strong technical and financial track record. In Nordex we found such
a partner," says Mark Tanton, Managing Director, Red Cap Kouga Wind
Development Company.
