On Friday, 3 April, EnBW marked the ninth year of operation of its Baltic 1 offshore wind farm – Germany’s first commercial scale offshore wind farm and the first offshore wind project EnBW built.

“Baltic 1 is the first commercial scale offshore wind farm in Germany; its electricity output reaches 185 million kilowatt hours on an annual basis, covering 50,000 households per annum and preventing 167,000 tonnes of harmful CO₂ from being released into the environment each year. Moreover, the wind farm has boosted economic development and created new jobs in the nearby town of Barhöft” , EnBW said via social media.
