PNE WIND Group: Successful in operational business in Germany
- Looft repowering project (16.5 MW) completed
- Start of construction of the Gerdau-Schwienau repowering project (21.6 MW)
- Further permits obtained
Cuxhaven, April 20, 2018 - The companies of the PNE WIND Group are
successful in the German wind energy market. The Looft repowering project in
Schleswig-Holstein was completed and commissioned as scheduled in the first
quarter. In Lower Saxony, the company started the construction of the
Gerdau-Schwienau repowering wind farm. Pleasing progress was also made in
other projects.
Six Vestas V66 wind turbines were replaced by five Vestas V112 turbines in
the Looft wind farm, which was built in 2001 by WKN AG, a member of the PNE
WIND Group. Today's turbines with a hub height of 94 meters have a total
rated output of 16.5 megawatts. Based on the successful cooperation at that
time, the operators of the WKN wind farm now also commissioned the
implementation of the repowering project. As a result, the company will
achieve a 2.5-fold increase in production in the future. The economic
concept was the responsibility of the subsidiary BGZ Fondsverwaltung, which
continues to be entrusted with the management and operation of the wind
farm. As before, the technical wind farm management remains the
responsibility of the PNE WIND subsidiary Energy Consult.
At the same time as the project in Schleswig-Holstein was completed,
construction work on the Gerdau-Schwienau wind farm in Lower Saxony began,
where six new wind power turbines with a total nominal output of 21.6 MW
will be erected. These will replace 13 turbines, which had been erected from
2001 in this wind farm by the PNE WIND Group. Here as well, repowering can
significantly increase the level of power generation.
Further operational successes
The PNE WIND Group also achieved further operational success on the German
market. The Kittlitz project (Brandenburg) received approval for a total
nominal output of 20 megawatts.
In Wangerland, Lower Saxony, the planned construction of a community wind
farm is underway. Here, the PNE WIND Group provides services in the areas of
project development, construction management and financing. PNE WIND is thus
pursuing its strategy of further increasing the share of services.
Commissioning is scheduled for mid-2018.
In addition, preparations are underway for participation in the next tender
rounds for wind farm projects in Germany.
Markus Lesser, CEO of PNE WIND AG: "The high level of competence in our core
business, the development of wind farms, continues to be reflected in
operational success. This is particularly evident in the Gerdau-Schwienau
project, for which we were awarded a contract in this year's tender and have
already started construction. It is also very pleasing that wind farm
operators are increasingly securing our competence through services."
