Nordex will install the turbines on tubular steel towers with hub heights of 112 metres.
Chief sales officer Patxi Landa said: "In the Chalkidiki project our most powerful turbine for regions with light wind speeds - the N175/6.X - will be installed for the first time in Greece.
“The turbine is perfectly adapted to the wind conditions at the site.
