eno energy founds subsidiary in the UK

eno energy UK will be active in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, and shall be headquartered in Birmingham. 

Matias Baigorria Heise, Chief Executive Officer of eno energy UK Ltd, explained the aspects that led to the foundation of the UK subsidiary. “The British Isles' fantastic wind regime, stable macroeconomic environments and proven renewable electricity remuneration systems will enable eno energy to target long-term company growth and increased market competitiveness within the UK. For eno energy, all historic nations present on the British Isles are part of a beautiful extended wind family and we are looking forward to bringing strong wind energy co-operations into all regions." 

eno energy will be initially offering three wind turbines in the UK: the eno 82 with rated power variations of 1.5 MW and 2.05 MW and a total height of less than 100 metres for wind class IIA; the 2.2 MW eno 92 with an 80-metre hub height; as well as the very turbulent-resistant eno 114 with a 3.5 MW capacity, wind class II-S and a 92-metre hub height, which is ideal for coastal locations. A smaller tower for the eno114 will follow shortly. 

An expansion of the product portfolio is planned for 2016 and, among others, will include: the 2.2 MW eno 92 wind turbine for wind class IIA with an overall height under 115 metres, and the 2.05 MW eno 82 for high wind regions with wind class IA – which is specially conceived for the windiest sites in Scotland and Ireland. The use of a large wind class IA wind turbine based on the 3.5 MW platform is also being considered. 

The activities in the United Kingdom will focus on direct sales to third-party customers such as mid-size independent power producers, small-scale project developers and landowners. In addition, project development collaborations are also possible. “eno energy wants to utilise its expertise garnered from its many years of corporate experience in project development to support customers in the UK from the planning approval right through to completely installed, turnkey wind projects,” adds CEO Matias Baigorria Heise. 

The company is generally seeking long-term collaborations with customers and project developers, banks and insurance companies, as well as with installation and logistics companies. 

UK eno’s service will include the “eno Complete Care Package” with a 15-year term and 97% technical availability. The measured availability of all eno turbines currently amounts to almost 99% on average. The eno technology will be fully bankable in the UK thanks to the independent due diligence report from the renowned appraisal experts at the 8.2 consultancy group as well as further high-quality project references. 

eno energy will be present at the WindEnergy trade fair in Hamburg, and its team shall be welcoming numerous visitors from the UK and Ireland at its stand, located at Booth Number 375 in Hall B6.
