Repowering approval granted: 49.6 megawatt wind farm in Tüttendorf may be built

Energiequelle and European Energy A/S, two leading renewable energy developers, are pleased to have received approval for the repowering of a wind farm in Tüttendorf (Schleswig-Holstein)

 

On June 26, 2024, Energiequelle GmbH and European Energy A/S received approval for the construction of eight wind turbines Vestas V162 wind turbines with a capacity of 6.2 MW each and a total height of 200 meters each. This quadruples the installed capacity of the wind farm from the current 12.5 megawatts (MW) to a total of 49.6 MW. In future, the wind farm will generate approx. 120,000 MWh of electricity per year.

 

Johannes Thon, Managing Director of European Energy Deutschland, emphasizes the importance of resident participation: “We are delighted with the high level of acceptance and commitment on site. The community energy company BWP Tüttendorf Projekt GmbH & Co. KG will become a co-owner of the new turbines. This will give citizens a direct stake in the wind farms and promote regional value creation. Energy in the hands of citizens is being put into practice here.”

 

Sören Lang, Head of Project Management in Schleswig-Holstein at Energiequelle GmbH, adds: “We are delighted that we can now start in Tüttendorf and implement the project with European Energy and BWP Tüttendorf. Repowering the wind turbines will make them more efficient and more powerful. The amount of electricity generated will be multiplied. The wind farm is therefore an important component of the energy transition in Schleswig-Holstein.”

 

Before the new wind turbines are erected, the seven existing turbines will be dismantled.
