finances/project financing
Cuxhaven (euro adhoc) - Cuxhaven, 13. 01. 2009 - Despite the financial crisis and the reticence of banks to grant loans resulting from this, Plambeck Neue Energien AG was able to secure the financing of wind farm projects with a nominal output of 46 MW at the end of 2008. The funds have already been paid out by the Commerzbank.
The financing with a volume of around 60 mill. Euro secures the share of outside financing of the wind farm projects in Buchholz (36 MW) and Schwienau II (10 MW). Both wind farms are already in the construction phase and will be completed in the first half of 2009.
