“I am optimistic about the outlook for our future growth. Thus, we expect an order intake of up to €1.6bn ($2.2bn) in 2014,” Nordex chief executive Jürgen Zeschky said.

“We have managed to double our market share in many countries and in Europe in general.”

Nordex's guidance for an order intake of €1.4bn to €1.6bn comes after its order intake rose  by 19% to €1.5bn
