Nordex has received an order from Kelag Kärntner Elektrizitäts in Austria. The company will supply and install seven N163/6.X turbines for the 47.6 MW Lavamünd wind farm. A 20-year service contract has also been agreed.
The project site is in southern Austria, in the border region of Carinthia, Styria, and Slovenia, on a forested ridge at elevations between 1,240 and 1,430 metres. Construction is due to begin at the end of 2025, with civil works carried out in stages. Installation and commissioning of the turbines are planned for 2027. Four turbines will be installed on 118-metre steel towers, while three will use hybrid towers with a hub height of 164 metres.
