Wind energy

We are the largest wind energy producer in the Baltics

In our region, wind energy is an environmentally friendly source of power that helps ensure energy security while providing sustainable electricity at a competitive price. The production of wind energy generates no greenhouse gases and releases no pollutants into the air. A wind turbine can recover the energy used in its production within less than a year.

Our wind parks are located in Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland

Enefit Green owns 27 wind parks in Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland with the total of 209 wind turbines. The total capacity of all wind park is 609 megawatts, which yearly produce more than 1 terawatt-hours of electricity.

This amount could supply more than 330,000 homes with an average consumption per year. Compared to electricity produced from oil shale, approximately 950,000 tons of CO2 per year are left unemitted at this production volume.

Akmenė wind farm in Lithuania

Akmenė (75 megawatts) is one of our newest wind farms, located in western Lithuania. The farms 14 turbines produce nearly 258 gigawatt-hours of green electricity annually, enough to meet the consumption needs of 80,000 average households.

Construction of the wind farm began in early 2022, with the first electricity delivered to the grid in early 2023. The wind farm was completed in the fall of 2024.

Tolpanvaara wind farm in Finland

Tolpanvaara (72 megawatts) is our only wind farm in Finland and the northernmost in our portfolio. The farm is in Northern Finland, approximately 30 kilometers from the town of Pudasjärvi, on state-owned land managed by Metsähallitus.

Annually, it produces nearly 250 gigawatt-hours of green electricity, enough to cover the annual consumption of approximately 40,000 Finnish households.

Construction of the wind farm began in early 2022, and the first electricity was delivered to the grid in the summer of 2023. The wind farm was completed in the spring of 2024.

The wind turbines are equipped with anti-icing systems that reduce the risk of ice falling from the blades and help ensure the park's operation under challenging weather conditions.

Purtse wind farm in Estonia

We established Estonia's first wind and solar hybrid park near Purtse, in the Lüganuse municipality.

What makes this unique is the integration of the wind and solar farms into the same grid connection point, utilizing shared equipment to feed electricity into the network. Since wind generates more electricity in autumn and winter, while solar excels in spring and summer, the amount of electricity supplied to the grid remains more stable, optimizing the use of the connection.

The Purtse wind farm (21 megawatts) features five turbines that produce approximately 46 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually. This amount of green energy covers the entire yearly electricity consumption of Lüganuse municipality or, for example, the island of Hiiumaa.

Three exciting facts about wind energy production


A wind turbine starts working at an average wind speed of 3 m/s.

Good wind energy production is obtained at 10+ m/s, and the ideal wind speed for wind energy production is approx. 12-13 m/s.

The wind turbine is shut down during extreme weather conditions when wind speeds reach 25 m/s or higher.

Take a virtual tour at the wind and solar park in Paldiski


We have prepared an exciting tour so that you can go on a ride on the wind turbine nacelle and on a walk at the solar park, the annual electricity output of which is equivalent to the average annual consumption of 300 Estonian homes.
