Energiequelle started construction of the Krummensee wind farm (Brandenburg) a few weeks ago. Work is currently being done on the access road, the crane parking area and the installation of the fire water tank. The first of three Enercon E-138 wind turbines, with a hub height of 160 metres and an output of 4.2 MW, is scheduled to go into operation in summer 2024.

Two more turbines are planned, but the start of construction is currently delayed due to legal proceedings. René Straeter, project manager at Energiequelle, is nevertheless relieved: “The project team is delighted that we have been able to start construction of one of the three turbines. After six years of planning, it is a special milestone when construction begins.”

In total, Energiequelle has installed more than 850 plants across Europe with a total output of almost 1,600 MW and currently employs over 450 employees at 21 locations in Germany, France, Finland and Poland.
