Qualitas Energy has been awarded the tender by the German Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) for a 40 megawatt (MW) greenfield wind project in Dalkendorf, located in the Rostock district of Mecklenburg. The company plans to commence construction in the spring of next year and aims to have the 39.9 MW wind farm operational by mid-2026.
To support this timeline, Qualitas Energy has already placed an order for seven Nordex N149 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 5.7 MW. “We are proud to have received our first order from Qualitas Energy in June, especially because the Dalkendorf project is only a few kilometres away from our nacelle production in Rostock,” said Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President Region Central & Managing Director of Nordex Germany.
Brüggemann expressed confidence in the project, stating, “We are confident that we will once again be able to implement a successful project in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania together with Qualitas Energy and look forward to further deepening our already good cooperation in the future.”
Jorge Guzman, Head of WTG Purchase at Qualitas Energy Germany, highlighted the choice of Nordex turbines, noting, “The decision in favour of the Nordex N149 turbines was an obvious one for us due to their proven efficiency and reliability. The resulting purchase and maintenance agreement is the result of negotiations in partnership with Nordex, whose pragmatism we appreciate. We are looking forward to teamwork in future projects.”
The Dalkendorf wind farm is among over 80 wind energy projects currently under development by Qualitas Energy in Germany. The company plans to invest €1.2 billion in the acquisition and development of wind energy projects, aiming to expand its project development pipeline to a total capacity of 4 gigawatts (GW).
