The wind power plants operated by CEZ Group companies in Germany generated nearly 270 million kWh of green power last year.
“We are happy that the first whole year of our presence in the German renewable energy market was already marked by an effective power generation; our wind farms covered the yearly power consumption of nearly 90,000 German households. We are committed to supplying the power generated by our green energy sources to our customers in a reliable manner and plan to further extend our energy source portfolio,” said Tomáš Pleskač, New Energy and Distribution Division Director.
CEZ Group announced its first acquisitions in Germany in 2016. Presently, its companies operate 53 wind turbines in ten wind farms all over the country from the Baltic Sea to the Alps, with their installed capacity totaling nearly 135 MW. These investments contribute to an optimum diversification of the CEZ Group production mix.
CEZ’s German team was joined by internationally recognized experts in the field last year, who represent a promise of another successful business development in the German market. The company presently focuses on on-shore wind farms and projects in the development phase.
