From April 2013 the German wind group will begin construction of foundations, road access, cabling, a transformer station and other elements, with installation of 32 of its N90/2500 turbines to follow.

The customer is Red Cap Kouga, a project company backed by a variety of investors, including Cape Town-based private-equity firm Inspired Evolution.

Earlier this month Nordex clinched an order for 40 of its N100/2500 turbines for the 100MW Dorper wind farm, backed by Rainmaker Energy and Japan’s Sumitomo Corporation.
