PNE Group has commissioned two wind farms in Schleswig-Holstein in Germany.
The wind farms were built in the municipality of Hamwarde in the district of the Duchy of Lauenburg and near Stuvenborn in the district of Segeberg.
Two Nordex N149 wind turbines each have a rated output of 5.70MW were connected to the grid in Hamwarde.
The wind farm Stuvenborn also includes two turbines: a Vestas V150 with a rated output of 6MW and a Vestas V136 with 4.2MW.
With a total nominal output of 21.6MW, the wind farms achieve an annual electricity production sufficient to cover the electricity requirements of 15,000 3-person households.
Markus Lesser, chief executive of PNE, said: “As a provider of clean energy solutions, we aim to have wind energy and photovoltaic systems with an output of 1500MW/MWp in operation or under construction by the end of 2027.
“With the commissioning of the two wind farms, we are well on our way to achieving this goal.”
The PNE Group currently has a further eleven wind farms under construction with an output of approx. 281MW, which will be transferred to its own generation portfolio after commissioning.
Together with these 370MW, around 651MW are now in operation or under construction.
The PNE Group has thus significantly exceeded its strategic interim target of wind farms with a total capacity of 500MW in operation or under construction by the end of 2023.
