VSB, one of the leading project developers in the renewable energy field, is pleased to announce the successful commissioning of a Vestas V-150 wind turbine at the Zernitz-Lohm wind farm in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district of Brandenburg.
The new 4.2 MW turbine at the Zernitz-Lohm wind farm will generate around 15 GWh of electricity per year, enough to supply around 3,750 four-person households with safe, emission-free, renewable energy.
Construction of the new turbine was successfully completed in the spring of 2023. Finding suitable transport routes during the construction period proved to be a major challenge. However, this was successfully overcome thanks to the solution-oriented cooperation of everyone involved. Using a self-propelled blade lifter meant it was finally possible to transport the large components.
“We are delighted to have successfully completed this project after a construction period of one and a half years,” says Thomas Winkler, Managing Director of VSB Neue Energien Deutschland GmbH, the company responsible for planning and construction. “With the commissioning of the Zernitz-Lohm wind farm, we continue to drive forward the expansion of wind energy and the transformation to a green energy landscape together and in close cooperation with local stakeholders.”
VSB’s mission is to promote renewable energy worldwide, achieve regional sustainability goals and secure a reliable supply of green energy for future generations.
