As a result, the energy does not enter the public electricity grid and is used solely to support industrial activities carried out within the Akmen\u0117 FEZ,\u201d says Lina Mockut\u0117, Head of Akmen\u0117 FEZ and UAB Akmen\u0117 bona, highlighting the project\u2019s uniqueness.<\/p>\n<p>The wind farm consists of five wind turbines, each with a capacity of 5.9 MW, with projected annual generation of approximately 103,000 MWh. The total value of the project amounts to EUR 65 million, of which EUR 44.25 million is a loan from the national development bank ILTE, EUR 12.7 million is an investment from the Sustainable Energy Fund I established by UAB Braitin, and the remaining amount represents investments from other shareholders of UAB Akmen\u0117 bona.<\/p>\n<p>From the earliest design stages through to infrastructure readiness for electricity generation, VMG Energy, a company belonging to the international VMG Group, actively contributed to shaping the project\u2019s vision, technological solutions, and development process. The company collaborated with electricity energy project developer UAB Greenerga and asset management company UAB Braitin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProjects of this scale can only emerge when a strong vision is supported by partner trust and investor determination. This wind farm is a long-term investment in industrial competitiveness and regional green energy generation, reducing manufacturing companies\u2019 dependence on market price fluctuations,\u201d says Petras Leknius, CEO of VMG Energy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":409,"template":"","class_list":["post-411","naujiena","type-naujiena","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Akmen\u0117 FEZ launches electricity generation at 29.5 MW wind farm | Akmen\u0117s laisvoji ekonomin\u0117 zona<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/akmenefez.lt\/en\/news\/akmene-fez-launches-electricity-generation-at-29-5-mw-wind-farm\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Akmen\u0117 FEZ launches electricity generation at 29.5 MW wind farm | Akmen\u0117s laisvoji ekonomin\u0117 zona\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A 29.5 MW wind farm has commenced operations in the Akmen\u0117 Free Economic Zone (FEZ), with VMG Energy actively contributing to its development.
