E.DIS subsidiary e.disnatur Erneuerbare Energien GmbH has agreed to build five new wind turbines in Mallnow near Frankfurt (Oder) in cooperation with GASAG AG. Construction will begin in October 2024 with an investment of over 40 million euros. The 250 m high turbines will produce 68 GWh/year of green electricity, which can supply almost 17,000 households. In addition, the five wind turbines will save 26,000 tpy of CO22 compared to the conventional electric mix.
The wind turbines have a total output of 28 MW. The selected type of turbine is characterized by high performance and efficiency and is suitable for areas with medium to strong winds. Mallnow is an ideal location for generating energy from wind power. The mills will be connected to the public grid in the summer of 2025. The GASAG group is already developing and operating several renewable plants that use solar cells and wind power.
Matthias Trunk, Sales Director of GASAG, said: “Wind energy is an important building block in our fossil-free future strategy. Together with our partner e.disnatur, we are building a large wind farm with the most modern 5 MW class systems. We are planning additional renewable systems to increase our green electricity production significantly. Our focus is on wind and solar energy in Brandenburg. We already use renewable electricity production for our regional electricity supply in the capital region.
Sebastian Noster, managing director of e.disnatur, added: “With this project, e.disnatur is proud to be able to make an important contribution to regional energy supply and to the implementation of the energy transition. Our strength lies in our close cooperation with municipalities and municipalities. regional partners who value us as a reliable and experienced player In Mallnow, together with GASAG, we build state-of-the-art wind turbines that not only supply thousands of households with green electricity, but also significantly improve the region’s CO2 balance.As a subsidiary of E.DIS AG we specialize in the development and operation of wind farms and solar plants in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Brandenburg, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt for the energy future This project is a significant step towards a climate-neutral future, and we are convinced that the expansion of renewable energy will provide both ecological and economic sustainable benefits for the entire region.”
