By completing all projects foreseen for the current year, the Bremen-based
project developer secures the forecast annual results 2016
Energiekontor commissions three repowering projects before the end of the
year as planned
Bremen, 30 December 2016. With the wind farms Debstedt (13.5 MW) and
Breitendeich (6.4 MW) in Lower Saxony as well as Grevenbroich (7.5 MW) in
North Rhine-Westphalia, Energiekontor AG has commissioned all repowering
projects as planned for this year. In the first half of the year, the wind
farm Hürth (8.55 MW) near Cologne was completed, followed in late summer by
the solar park Nadrensee (ca. 10 MWp) located in the southeast of
Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. The last project built and sold this year, the
wind farm Klein Woltersdorf (2.4 MW) in Brandenburg, is to be connected to
the grid in spring 2017.
The Energiekontor Group has thus successfully realised all projects planned
for 2016 and, hence, secured the forecast annual result for the business
period soon to be concluded.
Peter Szabo, CEO of Energiekontor AG, is delighted: "Just as last year, we
managed again to close all relevant projects for the year in time. As a
consequence, the annual results 2016 could even exceed our expectations. I
would like to thank all participants for their great and reliable
commitment. In the upcoming year, we will be facing new challenges in
connection with the new tendering system in Germany. As we have introduced
various efficiency measures along Energiekontor's entire value chain, we
continue to feel well prepared for a more competitive environment."
His colleague in the Management Board responsible for inland planning,
Günter Eschen, adds: "In addition to the wind farms already built,
Energiekontor has obtained building permits for further projects with an
overall capacity of around 80 MW in Germany. And further permissions for
some 20 MW have been secured in the UK. This is an important basis for the
year to come, since these projects can be realised independently from the
tendering process."
Energiekontor would like to thank its employees, its business partners,
shareholders and investors and wishes everybody a happy and peaceful new
year 2017.
