Nordex SE is a European company that designs, sells and manufactures wind turbines, founded in 1985 and headquartered in the German city of Rostock with production in Germany, Brazil, India, Mexico, Poland and Spain. According to the company, it had installed wind turbines with a total capacity of around 50 GW in over 40 countries worldwide by the end of 2023.
The company was founded in Give, Denmark in 1985.
On October 1, 2001, the bankrupt company of Südwind Babcock-Borsig was fully implanted into Nordex, which then continued to produce Südwind turbines in the 1.5 MW class (ProTec MD 1,500 kW) from 2001 - originally from "pro + pro Energiesysteme" (a subsidiary of aerodyn Energiesysteme GmbH and Denker & Wulf) developed the S70 and later the S77 - under license.
In 2016, the wind turbine manufacture business unit of Spanish conglomerate Acciona, Acciona Windpower, merged with those of Nordex to form Nordex Group. Acciona S.A. is now the main shareholder of the Nordex Group.
