Cooperation includes delivery, installation, and service of 100 wind turbines.
The developer and wind farm operator enercity Erneuerbare and the wind turbine manufacturer ENERCON have signed a partnership agreement for the supply, installation and service of onshore wind turbines. The contract is valid for two years and offers the option of extension. The project volume will be up to EUR 800 million and covers deliveries of around 100 wind turbines of different types. This was preceded by a tender placed on the market by enercity Erneuerbare, and a close cooperation between the two Lower Saxony's wind energy players already developed during the tender’s negotiation phase.
‘Ambitious growth and expansion targets can be realised even more efficiently with strong partners. With ENERCON, we ensure reliable access to high-quality technology within a contractually defined timeframe. In addition, both sides benefit from transparent pricing – this combination of quantity, time and price provides planning security for both sides,’ say Ralf Nietiet and Daniel Müller, Managing Directors of enercity Erneuerbare, a 100 percent subsidiary of the energy company enercity.
‘The wind energy market in Germany has picked up speed. The transfer of building permits to project implementation is increasing. The prerequisite for successful projects will be an early and agile cooperation between the project participants. The drafting of the contract in recent months and also the first projects in implementation show that we have found a very constructive level between the two companies. We are very pleased to supply enercity's projects and to shape the energy transition sustainably and together,’ says Benjamin Seifert, Regional Head Central & Northern Europe (CNE) at ENERCON.
More than 30 wind turbines will already be called up this year.
The partnership between the two players in the German onshore wind industry, based in East Frisia in Lower Saxony, is also a success for the North German regional economy. ‘Our partnership is a positive signal for the German wind industry and the regional economy. After all, wind energy creates added value – especially at our company, production and wind sites,’ explains Aurélie Alemany, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of enercity.
As a pioneer of wind energy technology and a committed supporter of the energy transition, we have specialised in developing, producing, selling and servicing onshore wind turbines. Pursuing our mission of ‘Energy for the world’, we have been championing sustainable energy generation from onshore wind since 1984. Thanks to our innovative wind turbine technology, high quality standards and many years of experience, we are one of the industry’s leading manufacturers anywhere in the world.
