Newbuild and repowering projects will have a total capacity of 38.4MW Energiequelle has received permits for two wind projects in Germany. One is in Lower Saxony and the other is in North Rhine-Westphalia. The wind farms have a total capacity of 38.4MW and preparations are now beginning for the tendering and construction of the eight turbines for the projects. In Minden, in the north-east of North Rhine-Westphalia, Energiequelle is planning to dismantle two Enercon and three NEG Micon turbines as part of a repowering project. Three Nordex N149 turbines with a total height of 200 meters will then be installed. The new wind turbines each have an output of 5.7MW. Jan Schrobsdorff, Project Manager at Energiequelle, said: After a lengthy development planning process and high bureaucratic hurdles, we were eagerly awaiting the approval. This is an important milestone in the project. The Luben project will feature five Enercon E-138 turbines with a hub height of 160 metres and an output of 4.26MW. Luben is Energiequelles second wind farm in the municipality of Wittingen within a year. Regional planning took more than ten years and demanded a lot of patience from us. The entire team is therefore very happy about the permit that we have been holding in our hands since December 20th, said Tina Hermerding, project manager in Wittingen. All necessary steps and registrations for both parks are to be completed by February in order to participate in the next tender. Construction work is scheduled to begin this year, with commissioning planned for 2026. In total, Energiequelle has received approvals for 15 projects with a nominal capacity of 290MW (wind) and 74MW (solar) in 2024. |
