EQS-News: Energiekontor AG / Key word(s): Miscellaneous Financial close for three more wind park projects – construction activity at a record high |
Bremen, 6 November 2025 – Energiekontor AG (“Energiekontor”), a leading German project developer and operator of wind and solar parks based in Bremen and listed in the General Standard, reached financial close for its wind park projects in Frechen and Nideggen, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Wulkow-Boossen, Brandenburg. The projects are now ready for construction.
After Energiekontor successfully participated in the Federal Network Agency’s EEG tender in February 2025 with the three approved wind park projects Frechen, Wulkow-Booßen and Nideggen comprising a total nominal capacity of around 73 megawatts, they recently reached financial close and are therefore ready for construction. According to current planning, all three wind parks are scheduled to go into operation in 2027.
Three Nordex wind turbines, each with a nominal power of 4.5 megawatts, are to be erected at the site in Frechen in the Rhine-Erft district of North Rhine-Westphalia. The new N149-4.5 turbines have a hub height of approximately 125 metres and a rotor diameter of 149 metres. Eight Vestas wind turbines, each with a generating capacity of 6.0 megawatts, are planned for the Wulkow-Boossen site in the Märkisch-Oderland district of Brandenburg. The V150-6.0 turbines have a hub height of approximately 166 metres and a rotor diameter of 150 metres. Two Enercon wind turbines, each with a nominal power of approximately 5.6 megawatts, are planned for the site in Nideggen, in the Düren district of North Rhine-Westphalia. The E-160 EP5 E3 turbines have a hub height of roughly 167 metres and a rotor diameter of 160 metres. The average expected annual yield of all the three wind parks starting from the first full year of operation is around 156 gigawatt hours – enough to supply more than 47,700 average households in Germany with renewable electricity and eliminate around 118,300 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
