Energiekontor Announces Financial Close for Three New Wind Parks

Energiekontor AG, a German project developer and operator of wind and solar parks based in Bremen, reached financial close for its wind park projects in Frechen and Nideggen, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Wulkow-Boossen, Brandenburg, comprising a total capacity of 73 MW. 

Three Nordex wind turbines, each with a nominal power of 4.5 MW, 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 MW, 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 MW, 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 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. With these additions, Energiekontor has reached financial close on 12 wind and solar projects totaling 326 MW in 2025. In total, 19 projects exceeding 610 MW are now under construction, including around 200 MW for the company’s own portfolio and three turnkey German projects already sold, which are expected to contribute to 2026 earnings upon commissioning.
