Key items addressed in the due diligence were yield estimations, electro-technical concept, technical aspects of all relevant licenses, consents and evaluation of the key project contracts, logistic-, construction and operation concepts. In addition to this was the verification of the associated assumptions for CAPEX and OPEX.
For the realisation of „Gwynt y Môr“ SWM, RWE Innogy and Siemens have established a Joint Venture which will invest around 2 billion Euro in the development and construction of the wind farm including the offshore-transmission assets (OFTO). The 160 wind turbines will be connected to the grid in 2014 and allow full project operation to commence that year. With the acquisition of a 30% share in the project SWM is making a big step towards its objective to provide 100% green energy to satisfy the energy demand for the city of Munich by 2025.
