Energiequelle has commenced construction on a 21MW wind farm located in Teschendorf, Lower Saxony, Germany. The project, situated in the district of Gifhorn, will feature five Enercon E-138 turbines, each boasting a hub height of 130 meters and a capacity of 4.2MW.
Initial work involves road construction on the site, with foundation installation slated to begin in January 2025. The wind farm's planning process, overseen by the Greater Braunschweig Regional Association (RGB), spanned nearly a decade, with an additional two years dedicated to the development plan process.
“After securing regional and land-use planning approvals, we obtained project approval within nine months,” stated Tina Hermerding, project manager at Energiequelle. “Our perseverance, along with the community's support, has proven fruitful as we move forward with our contribution to expanding wind energy in Lower Saxony.”
The wind farm is scheduled to be operational by October 2025, with Energiequelle assuming responsibility for both technical and commercial management of the facility. The project underscores efforts to meet renewable energy targets while navigating stringent regulatory requirements in Germany's evolving energy landscape.
