Acquisition éolien Brandebourg 36 MW

Qualitas Energy, a global investment, management and project development platform focused on renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure, recently announced the successful acquisition of a 36 MW wind repowering project in Brandenburg, Germany. This park, initially equipped with Enercon turbines since 1999, will see its old turbines replaced by five modern models. The aim of the project is to supply environmentally-friendly wind power to over 24,000 homes. The advanced planning of the project bears witness to Qualitas Energy’s commitment to accelerating the energy transition in Germany.

Cooperation with local communities

A key element in the success of this project is cooperation with local residents and communities. Qualitas Energy stresses the importance of involving local residents from the earliest planning stages.

“Our aim is to build sustainable projects that not only provide clean energy, but also win the trust and support of the local population,” says Borja Caruana, Managing Director of Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH.

This collaborative approach is designed to ensure the long-term success of wind power projects, offering both economic and environmental benefits to the region.

Integrated services for rapid deployment

Qualitas Energy stands out for its ability to accelerate project success through integrated services, from acquisition to development, construction and operation.

“The energy transition can’t wait,” stresses Johannes Overbeck, Head of Investments at Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH. “We are committed to working with local communities to ensure a clean, independent energy supply that benefits future generations.”

The company plans to invest a significant portion of its flagship fund, Qualitas Energy V, in repowering projects and the development of new wind farms in Germany. This fund, which closed at 2.4 billion euros, is one of the largest dedicated to renewable energies in the world.
