Hamburg, 23 September 2008. Nordex has
obtained its first order from Belgium: in the coming two years the 
company is to supply up to 22 large turbines from the N100/2500 
series for Air Energy, one of the biggest wind farm developers in 
Belgium. Nordex will be installing the machines in several projects 
mainly located in Wallonia. The value of the framework agreement 
comes to around EUR 73 million. In addition to this, Nordex and Air 
Energy have signed Premium Service Agreements for periods of ten 
years.
The sites developed by Air Energy in Wallonia are characterised by 
moderate wind speeds of between 6 and 7 m/s. These are exactly the 
site conditions for which the Nordex N100 is designed. This turbine 
is able to make optimal use of wind power in inland regions. By 
choosing Nordex´ latest technology, Air Energy will have access to 
the new range of the 2.5 MW turbine type.
Entry into the Belgian market comes at just the right time in terms 
of the growth outlook - new capacity of 830 MW is to be created by 
2012. Last year a mere 75 MW were added to existing capacity. Belgium
has set itself the target of increasing the share of "green" energy 
on grid from today´s 2% to around 13% by 2020. "The order from Air 
Energy is a good reference for Nordex, which will enable us to create
an important foundation for expanding our business in Belgium", said 
Carsten Pedersen, COO Sales and Marketing at Nordex.

over most of its competitors. Nordex has installed a total of over 
3,300 turbines with a capacity of more than 4,000 MW around the 
world. With exports accounting for over 90 percent of its business,
