We are delighted to be the chosen supplier for this project and looking forward to our future cooperation with Ilmatar.”
“This is a big investment decision that we are very proud of. We know that more renewable energy is needed and despite the changing economic circumstances the green transition needs to continue. Pahkakoski wind farm is a proof that Ilmatar continues to be courageous in its investment decisions to build renewable energy in the Nordics. We are very pleased to be cooperating with Vestas in this project. The cooperation between two Nordic companies, who want to enable a more sustainable future, has been smooth and effective”, comments Juha-Pekka Weckström, CEO, Ilmatar Energy.
