- Qualitas Energy has secured 113.2 MW in the May onshore wind energy tender, further strengthening its position in the German market
- The three awarded projects span two federal states and comprise a total of 16 wind turbines
- The tender round was once again heavily oversubscribed, underscoring the strong market momentum and the continued high demand for onshore wind development in the country
Qualitas Energy, a leading global investment and management platform with a dual focus on both funding and developing renewable energy, energy transition, and sustainable infrastructure, has been awarded three onshore wind projects in the May tender held by the German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur). With a combined capacity of 113.2 MW, the result represents a further milestone in the company’s continued expansion in the German wind market.
Located in Rhineland-Palatinate and Lower Saxony, the three projects comprise a total of 16 wind turbines. Once operational, they are expected to generate enough renewable electricity to supply approximately 75,000 households, making a meaningful contribution to regional decarbonisation and Germany’s national climate objectives.
The round was again highly competitive. A total of 628 bids, representing 6,409 MW, were submitted against a tendered volume of 2,495 MW, more than two and a half times the available capacity. The Federal Network Agency awarded 270 bids, corresponding to a total volume of 2,499 MW. Successful bids ranged from 4.44 ct/kWh to 5.19 ct/kWh, with a volume-weighted average award value of 5.06 ct/kWh.
Johannes Overbeck, CEO of Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH, said:
“Securing 113 MW in a highly competitive tender environment demonstrates the strength of our platform, the execution capability of our team and our long-term commitment to the German market. These projects will contribute to the continued expansion of Germany’s onshore wind capacity and support the development of a more resilient and sustainable energy system.”
With a robust portfolio of more than 100 wind energy projects, a 3 GW late-stage development pipeline, and over 1 GW already under construction or in operation in Germany, Qualitas Energy is ideally positioned to accelerate its growth through strategic acquisitions and targeted investments in high-potential renewable energy assets.
