Last week, NBT received permits to start construction of the first phase: a $431 million, 250 MW farm on the northern shore of Lake Sivash in southern Kherson. NBT says the construction schedule ensures commissioning by December of next year, allowing the project to qualify for the 10 euro cents/kWh green tariff. Germany’s Nordex group will supply 64 turbines. Beijing’s POWERCHINA will perform most engineering, procurement and construction. NBT has minority stakes in two wind farms in China, totaling 150 MW.
