The Nordex Group has received a new order from Bürgerwindpark BHU Betriebs GmbH & Co. KG for the supply and long-term servicing of wind turbines for the Bosbüll Holm Uphusum (BHU) community wind farm in the North Frisia region of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
Under the contract, Nordex will deliver eight N163/6.X wind turbines, each mounted on 118-metre tubular steel towers, for a total installed capacity of 56 MW. The order also includes a 20-year Premium Service agreement, ensuring high technical availability, performance optimization, and long-term operational reliability of the turbines.
Installation of the turbines is scheduled to begin in early 2027, with full commissioning expected by autumn 2027.
The wind farm, which spans three villages—Bosbüll, Holm, and Uphusum—will be operated by Bürgerwindpark BHU in 7 MW mode, enabling maximum energy generation and optimal utilization of the region’s strong wind resources.
Schleswig-Holstein is widely recognized as a pioneer in community-owned wind energy projects, particularly in North Frisia, where citizen-led investments in renewable energy have been established for decades. These projects promote transparent decision-making, enhance local acceptance of renewable infrastructure, and generate long-term economic benefits, including municipal tax revenues and funding for community development initiatives.
Commenting on the development, John-Heinrich Ingwersen, Managing Director of Bürgerwindpark BHU, said: “After nearly 15 years of planning, we have successfully realized this three-village community wind project. Around 400 limited partners will participate in the BHU wind farm, strengthening local ownership and shared value creation.”
Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President Region Central at Nordex Group, added: “Community wind projects are a cornerstone of Germany’s energy transition. We are pleased to support this locally anchored initiative with our N163/6.X turbine technology, contributing not only to climate-friendly electricity generation but also to sustainable local economic development in North Frisia.”
