Wind energy
Wind is a still largely untapped natural and environmentally friendly energy source in our region. Wind energy ensures the security of supply and environmentally friendly electricity at an affordable price.
Wind energy production
Clean air
Wind energy production does not generate greenhouse gases or emit pollutants into the air and it produces the amount of energy required to create a wind turbine in less than a year.
Favorable price
Wind energy brings down the price of electricity because it is the cheapest electricity production method that exists today.
The benefits of wind energy in our region
Security of supply
Wind farms can produce energy day and night, summer and winter. Thanks to the Estonian climate, wind farm productivity is readily able to meet the higher electricity demand of the winter season.
Energy security
Wind is a local resource with largely untapped potential. In addition to the installation of land-based onshore wind turbines, the region also has excellent conditions for the construction of offshore wind farms, as there are many shallow seas with excellent wind conditions.
Local benefits
The development of wind energy creates more jobs in the maintenance of wind turbines and in related fields. Local communities are also paid an annual resource fee, which municipalities can use to promote local life.
