Nordex manufactures wind turbines in Matamoros, Tamaulipas

Nordex Acciona, a plant of German origin dedicated to the production of blades for wind turbines, was inaugurated in Matamoros, Tamaulipas. The blades that will be manufactured from this border city will be the largest in the world. The arrival of Nordex to Matamoros represents the generation of 800 direct jobs and an investment of 1,200 million dollars. It is the second wind turbine production plant that has been installed in this Tamaulipas municipality in the last eight months; its construction was carried out in a record time of six months and will have four production lines that will convert this plant into the first in the world in which wind power blades will be manufactured for the 4-4.5 MW and 3-3.4 MW segments. Since its founding in 1985, Grupo Nordex has installed more than 25 GW of wind farm capacity in 40 markets. In Mexico, it currently has a wind farm capacity of 1,250 MW that it has installed for its customers and another 274 MW under construction. The wind turbines manufactured by the Nordex Acciona Windpower Group are distributed throughout the country, in parks in Tamaulipas.
