Keski-Suomen Betonirakenne Oy (KSBR) has agreed on the construction of the infrastructure of two new wind farms in collaboration with the renewable energy asset management service provider Luxcara and the renewable energy project developer ABO Wind. 

The new construction projects shall begin in Pihtipudas in Central Finland and in Sievi in Northern Ostrobothnia. KSBR shall carry out the infrastructure of both wind farms as a so-called turnkey delivery, i.e. it will be responsible for the design of the wind farms, the construction of the road and platform areas as well as the delivery of the foundations, substation, main transformers, and cabling as a turnkey contract.

Both Pihtipudas’ and Sievi’s 30-megawatt farms will have 7 turbines which will each have a total height of approximately 210 meters. In Pihtipudas, the farm will be installed in the village of Ilosjoki, and in Sievi in Jakostenkallio.

Luxcara has selected Vestas as the turbine supplier. The electricity will be sold directly to corporate off-takers, and the parks are built without any government subsidies.
