Peab builds wind farm in Tröndelag, Norway

Peab has been commissioned to build Hitra 2, a wind farm on Hitra Island in Tröndelag, Norway. The developer is Fosen Vind and the contract is worth NOK 170 million.

Fosen Vind’s investment in six major wind farms in Tröndelag will create the largest wind power project on land in Europe. Hitra 2 is number three of the six wind farms planned for construction.

In November Peab will start the groundwork by building 12 kilometers of roads, 26 wind turbine fundaments and other infrastructure in the area.

The project will be completed towards the end of 2018.

The project will be order registered in the third quarter of 2017.
