Hässleholm, Sweden, 2018-01-09 08:30 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Eolus has signed an agreement with E.ON Elnät regarding grid connection for the
wind farms Kråktorpet and Nylandsbergen in Sundsvall municipality. The
agreement covers wind farms with 61 wind turbines with an installed capacity of
232 MW.
On December 23, 2017, Eolus announced, through a press release, a sales
agreement with Aquila Capital regarding wind farms Kråktorpet and Nylandsbergen
comprising 232 MW. Eolus have signed a turbine supply agreement with Vestas for
both wind farms and a balance of plant contract with Veidekke which includes
roads, crane pads, foundations, internal electrical grid and communication
network.
Eolus now has signed an agreement with E.ON regarding grid connection for
Kråktorpet and Nylandsbergen. The wind farms are expected to be commissioned
during the second half of 2019.
Both Kråktorpet and Nylandsbergen are located close to wind farm Jenåsen which
Eolus currently is constructing in Sundsvall municipality. Jenåsen comprises 23
wind turbines with an installed capacity of 79 MW. The investments made in the
grid with, among other things, a new national grid substation in Nysäter to
connect Jenåsen have been necessary to connect both Kråktorpet and
Nylandsbergen to the grid.
