About Vindr

Vindr is a long-term renewable energy company investing across the entire value chain, from development and construction to operation of our power plants.

We are building our position as a leading renewable power producer in Northern Europe, contributing to energy security through advanced technology and sustainable practices. Our commitment throughout the value chain reflects a long-term strategy grounded in collaboration with local stakeholders and a focus on positive social and environmental impact.

Our projects are developed close to consumption areas, reducing transmission losses and minimizing environmental footprint.

Established in 2019, Vindr began by developing wind power projects in Norway and Sweden. Since then, we have expanded across the Nordics and Baltics, working to accelerate the green energy transition across the region.

Local Collaboration and Impact

Direct financial benefit to residents

Residents living within 2–3 kilometres of the wind park will receive direct financial compensation. For turbines planned within the Imavere Wind area, compensation is offered to households located within 2 kilometres of a turbine.

The compensation amount depends on the park’s annual production and the electricity price (estimated at 0.7–1% of revenues).

For example, a 100 MW wind farm (about 14 turbines) with an average electricity price of €80/MWh would generate around €280,000 per year in compensation — distributed between the local municipality and households.

Infrastructure development
Construction of the wind park will include improvements to local infrastructure — such as new and upgraded access roads, crossings, and utility connections — enhancing connectivity and safety in the area.

Support for local business and economy
Locally produced green electricity will strengthen the future competitiveness of energy-intensive sectors such as wood processing, forestry, and agriculture by providing access to clean energy.
The project will stimulate local economic activity, generate tax revenue, and create new job opportunities during construction and operation.

Project Area

The planned wind park area covers approximately 850 hectares.
Each turbine requires roughly one hectare of building rights.
To access the project area, existing roads and crossings will be upgraded, and new internal roads will be built to connect the turbine locations.
A new 330 kV substation and cable route will be constructed to connect the wind farm to the national grid.
