At the same time, successful participation in the Federal Network Agency’s (BNetzA) tender in February 2024 means that the wind farm can also be expanded in a timely manner.

VSB, the international project developer for wind energy and photovoltaics, has increased its existing syndicated loan agreement to a volume of EUR 160 million under the leadership of Commerzbank AG.
