2017: Sale of “Atlantis I” offshore project
In 2013, PNE WIND acquired the offshore projects then named Aquamarin, Bernstein and Citrin from an insolvent business, rechristened them “Atlantis I to III” and continued to develop them in the years that followed. “An offshore wind farm’s grid connection is of the utmost relevance to a project. Otherwise, the electricity cannot be fed into the grid. A change in the regulations denied us the grid connection for Atlantis I. We had to take legal action and were ultimately able to sell the project very successfully,” reported Thorsten Fastenau.
The “Atlantis I” offshore wind farm project, which is located in the North Sea, was sold to the Swedish energy company Vattenfall in 2017. The underlying data of “Atlantis I” was changed by the development of PNE in a way that has enabled 73 wind turbines in the multi-megawatt class to be built as part of the project.
