en.Wedoany.com Reported, The Marsdorf wind farm in Brandenburg, Germany, was recently connected to the grid. Developed by the UKA Group, this project is the world's first wind farm to fully utilize Nordex N175/6.X wind turbines. This global debut marks a significant advancement in Nordex technology. Following the announcement, its stock price rose 1.0% to 43.70 euros.
The Marsdorf wind farm is equipped with ten Nordex N175/6.X turbines, part of the Delta4000 platform, each with a rated capacity of 6.8 megawatts and a rotor diameter of 175 meters. The project uses a hybrid tower design with a height of 179 meters, which can utilize more stable wind flows to improve power generation efficiency, particularly suitable for inland areas.
Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President of Central Europe at Nordex Group, stated: "The Marsdorf wind farm is a flagship project for Nordex, demonstrating the potential of modern turbine technology, especially at sites with moderate wind conditions. The success of this world premiere is thanks to our long-standing cooperation with UKA."
In the future, these ten turbines are expected to generate enough electricity to meet the needs of approximately 52,000 households. UKA optimized the project's benefits by combining an efficient wind farm layout with economical development methods. Nordex was responsible for supplying the equipment and completing the construction and installation work.
Gernot Gauglitz, Managing Partner at UKA, pointed out: "Under current competitive conditions, using highly efficient turbines is crucial. Starting from May 2026, auctions are expected to be oversubscribed by 400% in the long term."
The project also includes a regional participation mechanism. According to the Brandenburg Wind Energy Facilities Levy Act, the operator pays 10,000 euros per turbine annually to surrounding municipalities. After 2026, this will change to a performance-based levy. UKA also voluntarily allows municipalities to participate in the power generation revenue, offering 0.2 cents per kilowatt-hour within a 2.5-kilometer radius. The funds will be used for local infrastructure and community projects.
