VSB plans 450-MW wind-solar hybrid project in Finland
VSB Uusiutuva Energia Suomi Oy, the Finnish subsidiary of German renewables developer VSB Group, is gearing up for an ambitious hybrid project in Finland’s North Ostrobothnia region. This innovative venture will combine 350 MW of wind energy with 100 MW of solar capacity, marking a significant step towards sustainable energy generation.
The inaugural hybrid project by VSB Uusiutuva Energia Suomi Oy will be situated in Haapavesi, where the company is preparing to construct the 350 MW Puutionsaari wind park. This wind farm will be complemented by a solar site located on a former peat production area, which VSB acquired. The synergy of wind and solar power is a key strategy in diversifying the renewable energy portfolio.
VSB has already initiated the permitting process for this groundbreaking project and anticipates receiving the necessary clearances by the end of 2023. The technical solutions employed in this hybrid farm have been previously tested and validated in Juurakko, Kalajoki, where VSB collaborated with Solarigo Systems Oy to develop their first wind-solar hybrid farm. |
