Energiekontor sells Scottish wind park project to Uniper
Energiekontor AG has sold a 46 MW Scottish wind park project located in southwest Scotland to Uniper.
A total of seven Nordex N163 wind turbines are planned for the site. The individual turbines have a maximum tip height of 200 metres and a rotor diameter of 163 metres. The average expected annual yield of the wind park is approximately 158 gigawatt-hours of electricity per year, enough to supply more than 66,000 average households with renewable electricity.
In October 2023, Energiekontor successfully participated in the project in the fifth round of auctions held by the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) for the allocation of a contract for difference (CfD). In this context, the project was awarded an inflation-linked feed-in tariff from which the wind park will benefit once it goes on stream.
