- The new wind farms will supply green electricity to over 166,000 households, equivalent to powering a city the size of Duisburg, Germany
- Qualitas Energy is committed to a clear decarbonization mission and focuses on innovative projects developed in collaboration with local communities to create long-term sustainable solutions


Berlin (renewablepress) - Qualitas Energy, a global investment and management platform focused on renewable energy, energy transition, and sustainable infrastructure investment, announced today the acquisition of a 250 MW wind energy portfolio in Germany. The portfolio features four wind farm projects, already at an advanced stage of development, with a total of 37 turbines planned across the federal states of Saxony-Anhalt, Hesse, Lower Saxony and Baden-Württemberg.

Once operational, the wind farms will supply green electricity to over 166,000 households -equivalent to powering a city with a population of 498,000 residents, such as Duisburg in Germany.

These new acquisitions mark a significant addition to Qualitas Energy’s growing portfolio in Germany. They follow the recent addition of a 32-turbine wind farm near the German North Sea coast and seven wind farms with a repowering potential of 173 MW, located across the country—both projects announced within the past month. Notably, this also represents the company’s largest transaction since acquiring DunoAir’s 1.4 GW German onshore wind development business in the spring of 2023. Building on this momentum, Qualitas Energy is actively pursuing its investment targets for the German market, supported by its flagship fund, Qualitas Energy Fund V, which closed in 2022 with €2.4 billion.

“Wind power is already one of the most cost-effective and reliable sources of sustainable electricity, which is why it is at the heart of our investment strategy,” explained Johannes Overbeck, Co-CEO of Qualitas Energy in Germany. “Our focus is on leveraging its potential through impactful projects that drive the energy transition and deliver lasting benefits to the environment and local communities,” he added.

Qualitas Energy’s German business, a subsidiary of the Qualitas Energy Group, specializes in the acquisition, financing, project development, construction, and operation of onshore wind turbines, with a mission to drive the transition to decarbonization. The company boasts a team of over 250 employees operating across six strategic locations in Germany: Berlin, Hamburg, Wiesbaden, Trier, Cologne, and Stuttgart.
