In the Schleswig-Holstein district of Rendsburg-Eckernförde, the PNE Group has successfully completed the expansion of the wind farm in the municipality of Gnutz. With the commissioning of four additional wind turbines in the Gnutz West I b section, the installed capacity of the site has increased by a further 22.4 MW.
The expansion comprises two Vestas V162 turbines and two V150 turbines, each with a rated power of 5.6 MW. The new wind turbines have been feeding green electricity into the grid since May 2025, making an important contribution to a sustainable energy supply. With the newly installed capacity totalling 22.4 MW, the annual electricity requirements of around 16,700 three-person households can be covered in future. With the new turbines, the Gnutz West wind farm, which has now been fully expanded, has a total rated output of 30.8 MW – a significant contribution to climate-friendly energy supply.
‘The Gnutz West wind farm is one of numerous cooperation projects that we are realising in Schleswig-Holstein together with landowners and citizens,’ says Roland Stanze, Chief Operating Officer of PNE AG. ‘It is an example of how local interests and the strategic orientation of an Independent Power Producer like PNE can be combined in a dialogue that goes far beyond the classic leasing of land.’
