Baltic renewable energy producer Enefit Green acquires Estonian offshore wind project

Enefit Green acquired the Liivi offshore wind farm project from Eesti Energia and will continue development work to start large-scale renewable electricity production before 2030.

Liivi Offshore Wind farm in the Gulf of Riga is planned to have a capacity of 1 GW and is expected to produce around 4 TWh per year. The area of development is situated between the coasts of Kihnu and Häädemeeste. At present, the surveys required to evaluate the wind farm's environmental impact and the preliminary technical analysis of the project are being conducted. The Estonian state has initiated spatial planning for the construction of a wind farm grid connection.

Enefit Green purchased the project for a sum of nearly 6.2 million euros.

Aavo Kärmas, Chairman of the Management Board of Enefit Green: "Estonia aims to generate a significantly higher amount of renewable electricity by 2030, and offshore wind energy is expected to be a critical component in achieving this goal. Therefore, it is crucial to sustain the pace of development work. The Liivi offshore wind farm is among the most progressive projects in the Baltic States, and the development project is geared towards commencing production before 2030."

Liivi offshore wind farm is the second offshore wind project in Enefit Green’s portfolio. The company is also developing a 1.1 gigawatt offshore wind farm in the north of Hiiumaa, which is scheduled to start production after 2030.
