New wind power plant in operation at wind farm Sternwald

At wind farm Sternwald III, the test operation phase of Plant No 9 was launched on 21 June 2016.

Both new Vestas V112 / 3.3 MW wind power plants could, therefore, be connected to the grid as scheduled and increased the installed capacity by 5.95 MW to almost 20 MW; W.E.B holds a share of 49 percent in Sternwald.

W.E.B was commissioned with the entire construction process of the project. As a special feature to point out, the wind power plants were equipped with heatable rotor blades. At this plant site 1,000 meters above sea level and always facing the danger of icing in winter, the results are expected to significantly improve – we are excited to see how it will turn out!
