Ignitis Group is preparing to bring its €127m, 94MW Pomerania wind farm in Poland online after wrapping up turbine installation.
Twenty-nine Nordex turbines with 3-3.3MW capacities feature at the project, which is the developer’s first in Poland.
Installation started in May and wrapped up in recent weeks. It is estimated that Pomerania will start operating at full capacity beginning from spring of 2021, when the turbine connection to the grid and other unfinished works are complete.
The total annual generated electricity will amount to 300 GWh, which will power around 160,000 households every year with clean energy.
“Completion of the Pomerania wind farm is another important step towards the decarbonisation of the Poland energy system,” said Ignitis chief executive Darius Maikštėnas.
“It is also exceptionally important to Ignitis Group because it will increase the green generation portfolio of the Group and strengthen the company’s position in the growing renewable energy sector of the neighbouring country.”
