The Potegowo wind farm

The Potęgowo wind farm reduces carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 500k tons per year and can produce electricity for up to 300K households. In addition to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the wind farm contributes to reducing combustion-related emissions.

The wind turbine system has been designed in such a way as to bypass bird migration routes, bird groupings, feeding or nesting areas.

The Potęgowo wind farm brings other benefits for local communities,
including the reconstruction of energy installations, new employment opportunities, improvement of local road infrastructure and additional tax revenues for local communities.

Wind is one of the most attractive forms of renewable energy on the market:

Renewable character

Wind energy is one of the oldest renewable, naturally deployable, energy sources used by man.

Protected ecosystem

Wind is the most environmentally-friendly method of generating energy. The operation of a wind power plant does not pollute water or soil, and does not exclude other land use, such as agriculture.

Clean energy

Wind turbines convert wind kinetic energy into electricity without any emissions into the air. No CO2, no other greenhouse gases, dusts or hazardous waste left behind as poisonous heritage for future generations-just clean energy.

Saving water and fossil fuels

Fossil fuel resources are decreasing. Unlike conventional power plants, wind farms do not consume huge amounts of water, already a scarce resource.

Increasing production capacity

Wind forms will soon reach a production capacity of 1000 GW. At the same time, wind energy production costs are decreasing- turbines are becoming cheaper, and, once they are constructed, their operation costs are almost zero.

Energy safety

Along with climate change, this is a strategic challenge for governments around the world- especially for those whose economy depends on fossil fuel imports. Wind farms contribute to reducing this dependency.
