With the Tormoseröd wind farm, which promotes the expansion of renewable energies and the energy transition in Sweden, Alpiq is underlining its commitment to sustainable energy solutions in Europe. The wind farm, which consists of 11 high-performance turbines with a total installed capacity of 72.6 MW, generates around 220 GWh annually – enough to supply around 8,000 Swedish households.
Tormoseröd wind farm: another step forward for renewables in Sweden
Alpiq and Fu-Gen, a Swiss-based renewable energy developer and independent power producer, have realised the Tormoseröd project as part of their strategy of investing in green energy infrastructure. Together, they have successfully implemented a project that not only meets Sweden's renewable energy targets but also exemplifies industry-leading technology and innovation in wind energy.
In December 2020, Fu-Gen acquired a majority share (70%) in the project company Tormoseröd Vindpark AB, which is fully owned by Alpiq. This partnership primarily involves the construction of the Tormoseröd wind farm in the municipalities of Strömstad and Tanum in the Västra Götaland region of south-west Sweden, and its operation over the next 30 years.
Tormoseröd wind farm, which consists of 11 high-performance turbines (Siemens Gamesa SG 6.6-155) with a total installed capacity of 72.6 MW and has been connected to the grid since mid-2023, generates around 220 GWh of renewable energy annually – enough to supply around 8,000 Swedish households. This significant expansion of Sweden's renewable energy portfolio directly supports the country's ambitious goal of switching to 100 per cent renewable energy by 2040.
