Wind energy developments

We plan, develop, and build wind farms in the Baltics and Poland

We develop wind energy

As the largest wind energy producer in the Baltics, we develop both onshore and offshore wind farms. Our development team of more than 40 people develops and builds renewable power plants in the Baltic countries and Poland.

Through local units, the team has a thorough understanding of the specific features of each market, which is essential for the successful implementation of our development projects. At Enefit Green, we share and apply the project development experience and learnings across all of the markets where we operate.

As of the end of 2023, Enefit Green's short- and long-term wind energy development portfolio amounts to nearly 1,900 megawatts.

Offshore wind energy

In addition to onshore wind and solar farms, the best way to meet current and future energy needs is with electricity produced in offshore wind farms. Thanks to more stable winds at sea, offshore farms can generate more energy, helping to balance the output of onshore wind and solar farms. Just fifty offshore wind turbines could provide half of Estonia's current electricity consumption.

In our long-term development portfolio, we have two offshore wind farm projects. We are developing the Liivi offshore wind farm, one of the most advanced projects in the Baltics. The planned capacity of the wind farm is 1 gigawatt, with an estimated annual production of approximately 4 terawatt-hours. Additionally, we are developing the Northwest Estonia offshore wind farm, located north of Hiiumaa, with a planned capacity of 1 gigawatt. This project is scheduled to begin production after 2030.

To ensure that at least one offshore wind farm capable of producing significant amounts of renewable energy for the entire Baltic region can begin construction by the end of this decade, a clear plan is needed. This includes a timeline and conditions for implementing a partial revenue stability mechanism as well as guidelines for grid development.

Strong community relations

We focus on the development of the regions where we currently operate or plan to operate in the future. In our development projects, we follow the principles of transparency and local community engagement. We understand that the development of renewable energy carries significant responsibility.

A wind farm is a facility with a significant spatial impact, and it is natural for it to raise various opinions, questions, and concerns. Our goal is to explore the possibility of building wind farms through constructive dialogue with the local community. In our development projects, we form working groups to regularly discuss topics and questions that may arise for the locals during the development process. This cooperation helps us achieve the best possible outcome, benefiting the municipality, the local community, and the developer.

Our development principles

The community is our partner

We create joint workgroups with the aim of building new developments that include the communities and key stakeholders

We do not create a significant negative impact on the environment

We carry out thorough and comprehensive environmental impact studies and involve experts with diverse experience at both local and international level

We use the best possible technology

In our plans, we consider possible future scenarios so that we should not have to limit ourselves when using the most modern and best technology.

We find synergies with other fields

We help communities plan their green journeys in a personal and flexible way

We involve best international practices

We are the leaders, and we involve the best international partners

Wind farms under construction

We currently have three large-scale wind farms under construction in Estonia and Lithuania, with a total capacity of 422 megawatts.

Long-term wind energy development portfolio

We have a strong short- and long-term development portfolio of onshore wind, offshore wind, and solar parks totaling approximately 4,900 megawatts. We are confident that our region needs a significant amount of new renewable energy capacities. The importance of hybrid solutions, storage and hydrogen technologies, and offshore wind farms is going to increase.
