Nordex to power 48 MW Crossdykes wind project in Scotland
The Nordex Group has won an order for the installation of ten N133/4.8 turbines at the Crossdykes project in Scotland, which is located 13 kilometres to the north east of Lockerbie, for Muirhall Energy. Construction work is due to start in 2019. Nordex will provide maintenance and service for the wind farm for a period of 20 years.
With the high installed capacity of the turbines of 4.8 MW, their hub height of 110 metres and a good wind profile, Muirhall Energy is to operate the wind farm without government funding. After its completion in 2020 Crossdykes will be able to supply 45,000 households with clean electricity.
The service agreement concluded with Muirhall Energy is linked to production-based availability. This offers security in terms of production for the wind farm operator and in turn makes it possible for Nordex to carry out preventive maintenance work, depending on the wind.
