The Seelow wind farm, also known as the Seelow-Gusow wind farm or Vierlinden wind farm, is located northwest of the town of Seelow in the Märkisch-Oderland district. Commissioned over 20 years ago, the nine turbines have now reached the end of their operational life.
PNE AG and e.disnatur Erneuerbare Energien GmbH are therefore planning to repower the wind farm, replacing the old wind turbines with up to six modern and more powerful turbines. This will result in a significant increase in capacity. The new wind farm could have more than twice the output of the old one, with a correspondingly higher production of clean energy.
The repowering will therefore serve to significantly increase efficiency and electricity generation, while at the same time reducing the number of turbines.
Contracts with the landowners for the planned sites have been concluded, so that concrete planning and further coordination with the various local stakeholders can now continue.
In a separate announcement, PNE also said that it was successful in the third round of tenders issued by the Federal Network Agency for onshore wind farms. All submitted projects were awarded contracts. These included the ‘Hassendorf’ repowering project, the ‘Gerdshagen’ wind farm expansion and the ‘Niederkrüchten’ energy park.
In North Rhine-Westphalia, the PNE Group will construct the ‘Niederkrüchten’ energy park with five wind turbines and a capacity of 36.0 (Megawatt) MW. In Brandenburg, the contract for the expansion of the ‘Gerdshagen’ wind farm with one wind turbine and a capacity of 7.2 MW was also awarded. In Lower Saxony, the ‘Hassendorf’ repowering project with three wind turbines and a total capacity of 14.4 MW is being built
Also in Lower Saxony, a total of twelve wind turbines with a total capacity of 85.8 MW are to be built in the ‘Überhäsiges Viertel’ wind farm. This is a cooperation project between Volksbanken in the district of Cloppenburg and PNE AG.
