“Typically located in less developed rural areas, wind farm projects not only benefit the energy sector development, but also contribute to achieve broader rural development goals, including the upgrade of local infrastructure, security, and electrical supply capability” said Esa Holttinen, Business Director, Wind Power. “Apart from that, such projects also create local job opportunities and spur additional income in the community, overall positively impacting the locality's quality of life”.
This project is part of B. Grimm Power's goal to add 635 MW equity capacity to its existing 1,082 MW equity capacity by the end of year 2021, making it a crucial part in ensuring at least 70 percent growth in the company's equity capacity in the next two years.
This is the 13th owner's engineering construction assignment that Pöyry has handled for B. Grimm Power, since the year 2010.
