Hessen: Actively shaping the energy transition
Hessen is pursuing ambitious climate goals: to meet the entire electricity demand with 100% renewable energy. Since 2010, we have been actively shaping this transformation. Under our guiding principle “Develop. Plan. Build.”, VSB has successfully implemented numerous renewable energy projects. Our first wind farm in Hessen, near Ruhlkirchen, began operation in 2013. Since then, we have been driving forward the expansion of renewable energy together with Hessen. Our wind farms in Fischbach, Trendelburg, Homberg, Ruhlkirchen, and Vockenrod make a significant contribution, supporting an impressive achievement: nearly two-thirds of Hessen’s gross electricity demand already comes from renewable energy sources.

Local Presence: Our Regional Office in Kassel
Hessen holds great potential for further VSB projects. However, proximity to local communities and issues is key to fully unlocking these opportunities. That’s why we have established a regional office in Kassel. Our experienced team of project developers and planners identifies suitable sites for renewable energy projects and develops tailored, future-proof concepts – including cross-sector and technology-integrated solutions.
Key Players in the Energy Transition: Municipalities
Municipalities play a crucial role in expanding renewable energy by designating sufficient land for renewable projects in their regional and land-use plans. The benefits are clear: direct local value creation that also benefits citizens.
Shaping the Energy Transition Together
Partnerships on equal footing and transparent communication are at the core of our work. That’s why we prioritise information events and community festivals where our experts answer all questions in detail. After all, a sustainable and future-proof energy supply can only be achieved together.
