Located in Asslar in Hessen, the wind farm consists of six GE 2.75-120 turbines and has a total generation capacity of 16.5 megawatts (MW). CEE Operations GmbH will be responsible for the commercial management. Max Bögl Wind AG will oversee the technical side. The farm has been fully connected to the power grid since May 2017. More than 30,000 tons of CO2 can be saved each year after commissioning.
This is the first joint project implemented by CEE and Max Bögl. Detlef Schreiber, the CEE Group’s CEO says: “We are pleased to have successfully completed this project with Max Bögl and Mr. Reitz. The acquisition of the Asslar wind farm marks a further step in our successful growth strategy. Together with our partners, we also aim to grow outside our core German and French markets in the long term.”
For the Max Bögl Group, Guido Marks, Head of Wind Project Development, says: “We are delighted to have handed the Asslar wind farm over to the experienced and expert hands of the Hamburg-based CEE Group.”
More than 50 CEE power plants cover the energy needs of over 900,000 people.
In 2018, CEE energy parks will probably produce about 1 million megawatt hours (MWh) of renewable energy sources and thus provide green power to around 235,000 4-person households.
