ENERCON and long-standing customer Soler signed contract during WindEnergy Hamburg
ENERCON and the renewable energy company Soler entered into a turbine supply agreement: The contract was signed during WindEnergy in Hamburg and comprises the installation of 3 x E-115 EP3, 20 x E-138 EP3 and 1x E-175 EP5 with a total capacity of 104 MW across the country of Luxembourg. It is the first time, that the current ENERCON top model is sold in Luxembourg. The turbines will be delivered on a phased basis over the next two years. Each project is accompanied by an EPK service contract of 20 years.
‘The projects we have completed across various regions of Luxembourg over the past years have demonstrated that ENERCON models are the ideal choice for us. In addition to the quality of delivery and service, I want to highlight the reliability and innovation that distinguish every new generation of ENERCON turbines. This is why we are excited to sign this milestone contract (for our new and repowering projects) and embark on the next phase of wind energy development in Luxembourg.‘, says Paul Zeimet, Managing Director at Soler.
‘We are grateful for Soler’s trust in ENERCON once again to deliver high quality wind turbines to Luxembourg. Soler knows us for our project delivery and service, and we are happy to continue with our partnership together with them’, says Johan Terpstra, ENERCON’s Head of Western Europe.
In Luxembourg, ENERCON has a long history of positive partnership having worked on several projects across the country over the past several years. Among other things, ENERCON benefits of its strong track record of delivering projects in challenging terrain which is prevalent in many parts of Luxembourg where the projects are to be realised.
As a pioneer of wind energy technology and a committed supporter of the energy transition, we have specialised in developing, producing, selling and servicing onshore wind turbines. Pursuing our mission of ‘Energy for the world’, we have been championing sustainable energy generation from onshore wind since 1984. Thanks to our innovative wind turbine technology, high quality standards and many years of experience, we are one of the industry’s leading manufacturers anywhere in the world.
After 12 years, the CNE sales team secures its first major order for 7 x E-160 EP5 with a total capacity of over 38 MW.
What has characterised ENERCON Service since the very beginning?
ENERCON achieved the technological breakthrough in the 1990s with the legendary E-40/500 kW. The gearless drive concept introduced for the first time with this wind turbine type still characterises ENERCON wind energy converters to this day. It also forms the basis for the new top-of-the-range model E-175 EP5 that ENERCON is currently rolling out in series production.
Following the successful fulfilment of the 750 MW turbine delivery agreements in the first phase, the companies have taken another step towards completing the 1,000 MW project by signing a delivery agreement for the remaining 250 MW capacity.
