EDF signs near‑gigawatt UK wind turbine supply agreement with Nordex
Type: Supply Agreement · Technology: Onshore Wind · Country: United Kingdom · Capacity: 1 GW · Announced: 2026-08-05
EDF announced a supply agreement with German turbine manufacturer Nordex to deliver close to one gigawatt of wind turbines for a UK project. The contract marks a departure from EDF’s traditional project‑by‑project procurement, opting for a more cooperative approach with Nordex. The turbines will be installed across multiple sites in the United Kingdom, supporting EDF’s expansion of onshore wind capacity. EDF expects the turbines to be commissioned between 2027 and 2029, adding material renewable generation to its portfolio. The deal underscores EDF’s strategy to accelerate its green energy targets while providing Nordex with a substantial foothold in the UK market. No financial terms were disclosed, and the agreement was announced on 5 August 2026.
