Overview
- The Bavarian State Forestry has finalized site-security agreements for three wind parks totaling up to 22 turbines in Pollenfeld, Schlüsselfeld, and Ipsheim.
- These turbines are expected to collectively generate electricity for approximately 100,000 households once operational.
- Citizen participation models will allow up to 100% local ownership in Pollenfeld and Schlüsselfeld and up to 50% in Ipsheim, engaging regional stakeholders.
- The wind farms are anticipated to become operational in four to five years, pending ongoing permitting processes.
- This initiative builds on Bavaria's existing 101 turbines, with eight more nearing operation and construction on 30 additional turbines set to begin this year, advancing toward the 2030 target of 500 installations.
