The wind farm operates 35 turbines, each with a capacity of 2.0 MW, adding up a total installed capacity of 70 MW. The project will allow to save more than 215,000 tons of CO2 per year, and will supply energy to more than 85,000 households.

Speaking at the event, Joaquim Barbosa, General Director EDPR Poland said: “Budzyn Wind Farm is an important milestone for EDPR both at a local and national perspective. The project will not only add clean energy to the grid in such unstable times for polish energy market, but it will also contribute to decrease the energy prices, provide new jobs, infrastructure, and tax income for local government & citizens. EDPR is proudly contributing to the energy independence of Poland and will continue to help accelerate the energy transition at a global level”.

The construction of the Budzyn wind farm was a four-phase project. The first 40 MW were connected to the grid at the end of April of 2022, and the next 20 MW at end of August 2022. Remaining 4MW and 6MW will be connected at the end of October.
