Nordex Group has announced a series of upgrades to its Delta4000 platform, introducing enhancements to the N175/6.X turbine aimed at improving performance, energy yield, and project adaptability across key markets.
As part of its product improvement programme, the company has launched a new power mode with a nominal rating of 7.3 MW for the N175/6.X turbine. The upgrade is expected to increase annual energy production by up to 1.7% without impacting sound power levels. Nordex has already secured more than 3 GW of firm orders for the turbine, reflecting strong market demand.
In parallel, Nordex is developing a new concrete-steel hybrid tower configuration with a hub height of 162.5 meters, specifically targeting the German market. Type approval for the tower is expected in the second quarter of 2026, with initial deliveries planned for the second half of the year. The configuration is designed to optimise energy yield, particularly in low to medium wind conditions, while complying with Germany’s maximum permitted building height of 250 meters.
The company has also achieved a key certification milestone for its 179-meter hybrid tower solution. During the WindEurope Conference, Nordex received type approval certification from TÜV SÜD for the hybrid tower developed in collaboration with Max Bögl. The certification enables deployment of the N175 turbine on this tower variant.
With these developments, Nordex aims to further strengthen the competitiveness of its turbine technology by enhancing performance efficiency, expanding deployment options, and supporting reliable execution of wind energy projects in evolving global markets.
