What this shows Nordex's Innovation Score is 53.9/100 (top 8% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Nordex?

Each dot is one of Nordex’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Nordex’s own 18.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Nordex's grants concentrate

Nordex Energy Spain S.A.U. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F03D (Wind Motors). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Nordex sits between Nihon Spindle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Novel Crystal Technology, Inc..

Nordex's three-year grant acceleration

Nordex Energy Spain S.A.U. shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
