E. ON Wind Service Takes over Maintenance in Scottish Wind Farm

After only entering the British onshore wind market in June 2017, E. ON Wind Service was able to win a major contract in Scotland. Under the terms of the contract, E. ON will take over maintenance work on the Drone Hill wind farm near Coldingham in Scotland for the coming years.

The site, which has been in operation since 2012, has a capacity of 28.6 MW and is jointly owned by Greencoat UK Wind and Swiss Life Asset Management.

Katja Bartsch-Wünschel, Director of E. ON Onshore Wind Europe, said: “We are extremely privileged and proud to have been given this opportunity. E.ON operates under the motto “Service with an Owner’s Eye”, which means that we will provide the same quality of service and dedication as we would do for our own sites. We look forward to building this relationship and working in cooperation with Drone Hill Wind Farm Ltd over the coming years.”

E. ON itself operates 16 onshore wind farms in the United Kingdom.
