Projected annual electricity production stands at some 700 GWh for approx. 200,000 households.
Chairman of the Management Board of Enefit Green, Aavo Kärmas: "Sopi-Tootsi Wind Farm will be the most modern and powerful renewable energy production area in Estonia and the Baltic States and will nearly double the current amount of wind energy produced in Estonia. Building the wind farm in good cooperation with our partners is an important step towards renewable energy target of Estonia and providing affordable green electricity to the market.”
Patxi Landa, CSO of the Nordex Group: "We are very pleased to be working with Enefit Green again. We are currently supplying 13 N163/5.X turbines for the 72 MW Tolpanvaara wind farm in Finland. The 255-MW wind farm will cover more than 8% of the electricity consumed in Estonia. The contract is evidence of the highly competitive standard of our technology. Enefit is acquiring our latest and most powerful technology. At the same time the order is a huge demonstration of confidence in the joint partnership between our two companies."
