Nordex Group announced a robust order intake of 3,054 MW in the Projects segment for the second quarter of 2026, representing a 32.2% rise compared to the 2,310 MW recorded in the same period last year. Combined with first-quarter figures, the first half of 2026 reached 4,923 MW, up 9.6% from 4,492 MW in H1 2025.

The average selling price (ASP) remained stable at EUR 0.97 million per megawatt in Q2 2026, unchanged from Q2 2025, while the H1 2026 ASP was EUR 0.95 million/MW, slightly above the EUR 0.92 million/MW in H1 2025. The company attributed the increase to project scope and regional mix effects.

Orders were placed for 496 wind turbines across 10 countries during the quarter. Germany, the United States, and Türkiye were the strongest individual markets. CEO José Luis Blanco highlighted the US milestone: "With an order intake of around 800 megawatts in the US this quarter, we’ve reached an important milestone." He added that the figure reflects customer trust and the strength of Nordex's American operations.

Separately, on July 7, Nordex disclosed a major framework agreement with German wind and solar park developer UKA (Umweltgerechte Kraftanlagen GmbH & Co. KG) for approximately 700 MW. The deal, finalized at the end of June, covers 100 turbines of types N175/6.X and N163/6.X, each with a rated capacity of 7 MW, destined for projects across several German federal states. The contract includes multi-year service and maintenance agreements.

Gernot Gauglitz, CEO of UKA Group, stated that the orders build on successful bids in the August 2025 and February 2026 renewable energy auctions, and that UKA is on track to install 1 GW of wind capacity in a single calendar year.
