Energie Burgenland has engaged in renewable energy generation after the construction of the first wind farm in Zurndorf in 1997.

Enercon CEO Hans-Dieter Kettwig said: “We want to make sure we can play our part in implementing the energy transition in Austria in future, too.

“We hope this good start will be a sign of things to come and that this will have an effect on neighbouring countries. Austria and its neighbours still offer huge growth potential for wind energy. The region thus continues to be an important sales market for Enercon.”
