EnBW Erneuerbare Energien has acquired a wind farm with eight turbines and total output of 16 MW from Ventotec (Leer).
The wind farm is located in Neuruppin-Dabergotz in the Federal State of Brandenburg.
A team from CMS Hasche Sigle led by lead partner Jochen Lamb advised EnBW on all aspects of the transaction.
At the end of 2011, EnBW acquired the Christinendorf III wind farm from Ventotec with the support of the same team.
Construction work on the Neuruppin wind farm is expected to start shortly, with commissioning scheduled for the early part of 2013. Once operational, the wind farm will feed electricity into the public power grid via its own distribution substation. The turbines with a hub height of 105 metres have a rated output of two MW each. The forecast average annual production is enough to meet the needs of around 10,000 households.
The purchase price was not disclosed. EnBW and Ventotec will continue to work together during the operating phase, after construction of the wind farm has been completed.
