ENERCON and the Turkish energy generation company Enerjisa Üretim have concluded a memorandum of understanding (MoU) covering the supply of two of the latest ENERCON E-175 EP5 wind energy converters. The MoU was signed at WindEurope in Copenhagen.

The agreement stipulates that ENERCON will install two prototypes of its new top model with a rotor diameter of 175 metres and a nominal power of 6 MW in Turkey by the end of 2024.

“We are pleased that we are continuing our trust-based cooperation with Enerjisa Üretim with our new turbine type. ENERCON is already the supplier of wind turbines for the YEKA RES 2 project, with which we will install 1,000 MW of onshore power in Türkiye for Enerjisa Üretim in the next three years. With the delivery of the new E-175 EP5, we are launching the next chapter of our partnership,” said ENERCON CEO Dr Jürgen Zeschky.

With a rotor diameter of 175 metres and a nominal power of 6 MW, the E-175 EP5 wind energy converter type is currently the largest and most powerful in the ENERCON product portfolio. It features ENERCON direct drive concept, an innovative E-nacelle with electrical systems built into the machine house, and an 86-metre long one-piece rotor blade.

The MoU signed by ENERCON and Enerjisa Üretim not only covers the supply and installation of the WEC technology, but also the operation and service of the two prototypes. They will be installed at the Enerjisa Üretim Balıkesir Wind Power Plant and Enerjisa Üretim Bandırma Energy Base sites in the province of Balıkesir.
