Qualitas Energy, a global investment and project management platform, has won the Bundesnetzagentur (BNetzA) tender for a 39.9 MW project in Dalkendorf, in the Rostock district of northern Germany.
Success in this tender guarantees remuneration for electricity sales over the next 20 years, marking a crucial step in the project’s progress.
Qualitas Energy plans to start construction in spring 2025, with commissioning scheduled for mid-2026.
To achieve this goal, the company is ordering seven Nordex N149 turbines, each with a capacity of 5.7 MW.

A strategic partnership with Nordex

Karsten Brüggemann, Vice President Central Region and Managing Director of Nordex Germany GmbH, says: “We are delighted to receive our first order from Qualitas Energy in June, especially as the Dalkendorf project is only a few kilometers from our production site in Rostock. We’re convinced that together we’ll be able to successfully complete another project in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.” Jorge Guzman, Head of Turbine Purchasing at Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH, adds: “The Nordex N149 turbine was the obvious choice for us because of its proven efficiency and reliability. We appreciate Nordex’s pragmatic approach, and the maintenance and supply contract reflects our collaborative negotiation process.”

Strategic expansion in Germany

The Dalkendorf wind farm is one of more than 80 wind power projects currently under development by Qualitas Energy in Germany.
The company is expanding its portfolio by acquiring rights to projects in the development phase (greenfield) and existing wind farms for repowering across the country.
With an investment of 1.2 billion euros, Qualitas Energy aims to increase its internal project development pipeline to a total wind power capacity of 4 GW.
The strategic investment and strong partnerships enable Qualitas Energy to strengthen its position in the German renewable energy market.
The Dalkendorf project represents a significant step towards achieving its ambitious wind power capacity targets, while contributing to the country’s energy transition towards a greener, more sustainable economy.
