Germany-based REpower Systems has secured contracts to supply 103 wind turbines totaling over 266MW capacity to 24 community wind farm projects in the Schleswig-Holstein region.

The company has won these contracts from different contractors who were previously represented by a purchasing association Schleswig-Holstein GmbH Wind.

In December 2012, REpower and the purchasing association had signed a primary memorandum that assured the participants from 52 projects in Schleswig-Holstein binding conditions in a model contract.

Under the terms of the memorandum, the participants were given options to choose the appropriate offer from the final negotiated contracts of four different manufacturers for their own location.

In this process, REpower has secured 55% of all potential wind turbines for itself in the region.

Under the contracts, the company will deliver different types of turbines ranging from the MM82 with 59 metres hub height to the 3.2M114 with a hub height of 93 metres.

Repower’s 11 wind turbines of the signed projects are already in the implementation phase and will be commissioned shortly. The wind turbine installations for other projects will be concluded by 2015.

REpower CEO Andreas Nauen said the new contracts will help the company to expand its position in Northern Germany.

"This is only possible because we have a suitable turbine for each individual site in our product portfolio, from Lübke-Koog in the far north, to near Fehmarn in the east of Schleswig-Holstein, and also because we have the ability to implement the interests of customers optimally with our staff on site," Nauen added.
