OX2 has sold the 115 MW wind farm Ånglarna in Sweden to a European utility for 2.7 billion SEK*. The sale will be recorded in the third quarter.
The Ånglarna wind farm will consist of 18 turbines and be situated in the county of Falun in Sweden. OX2 acquired the project rights in May 2019 and the project was fully permitted in February this year. Construction will start in the fourth quarter of 2023 and commissioning is planned for the end of 2026. The annual production from the wind farm is estimated to about 346 GWh, which corresponds to the annual electricity consumption of 69,000 households.
– We are pleased with selling Ånglarna and look forward to realizing the project. We are also grateful for a constructive cooperation with local stakeholders, which made this project possible. The wind farm will make a valuable addition in price area 3, where there is a great demand for more emissions-free electricity production. The sale process has also proved that there is a lot of interest among investors for this kind of renewable energy project, says Paul Stormoen, CEO, OX2.
Once commissioned, OX2 will be responsible for the technical and commercial management of the project, optimizing the production and supervising its operations under a 15-year agreement.
