Energiekontor advances project realisation and expansion of its own portfolio in the first nine months of 2026

Bremen, 12 November 2026 – Energiekontor AG (“Energiekontor”), a leading German project developer and operator of wind and solar parks based in Bremen and listed in the General Standard, reached financial close on further projects, successfully commissioned several wind parks and continued to expand its own portfolio of wind and solar parks in the first nine months of 2026. Its extensive portfolio of projects under construction and existing building permits provide a solid foundation for further project realisation and the expansion of its own electricity generation capacity. In October 2026, the company also completed the commissioning and handover of the German wind parks sold on a turnkey basis in the previous year, with the corresponding earnings recognised in the 2026 financial year.

Important operational milestones included the commissioning of four wind parks with a combined capacity of approximately 88 megawatts and further financial closes for German wind and solar projects. In October 2026, the two wind parks Elsdorf-Frankeshoven and Elsdorf-Tollhausen, with a combined capacity of approximately 40 megawatts, were also completed as scheduled and handed over to the town of Elsdorf. This means that the commissioning and handovers generating earnings contributions in 2026 have now been completed for all three German wind parks sold on a turnkey basis in the previous year.

As of 30 September 2026, projects with a total rated capacity of approximately 609 megawatts were under construction or had reached financial close. Around 227 megawatts of this capacity are earmarked for the company's own portfolio and are expected to increase its electricity generation capacity to more than 680 megawatts once commissioned. The company also continues to have an extensive basis of building permits for further project realisation. By the time of publication, the total capacity covered by existing building permits had increased to approximately 1.3 gigawatts.

During the reporting period, Energiekontor added approximately 24 megawatts of newly commissioned wind parks to its own portfolio. As of the reporting date, the company's portfolio of wind and solar parks therefore totalled approximately 461 megawatts. The next step in its expansion is the commissioning of two solar parks in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, with a combined capacity of approximately 113 megawatts. Electricity generation from the Group’s own parks increased to around 480 gigawatt hours in the first nine months of 2026, compared with approximately 413 gigawatt hours in the same period of the previous year. This increase was driven by both the expansion of the company's own portfolio and more favourable weather conditions.

Alongside project realisation, Energiekontor continued to advance the technical and commercial optimisation of its wind and solar park operations as well as its electricity marketing activities. These efforts include intelligent control systems designed to reduce unnecessary downtime and improve energy yields. In addition, Energiekontor arranged and supported the implementation of a long-term direct electricity supply to an industrial customer from a wind park it manages on behalf of a client. Implemented jointly with its partners, this model is among the first of its kind in Germany.

In the United Kingdom, Energiekontor received updated grid connection offers in September 2026 for seven Scottish wind projects with a combined capacity of more than 350 megawatts. The proposed grid connection dates range from 2029 to 2032. The offers are currently under review. Further details on the development of the UK project business and the outlook for the 2026 financial year can be found in the quarterly statement for the first nine months of 2026, which is available on the Energiekontor AG website at www.energiekontor.de/en/investor-relations/financial-reports.

“The successful commissioning and scheduled handovers of our German wind parks demonstrate that we continue to make good progress in delivering our projects. Our extensive portfolio of projects under construction and the expansion of our own electricity generation capacity strengthen the foundation for future earnings contributions and recurring income. For further project development in Germany, we now need clarity on the EEG and grid connection regulations. The future regulatory framework must enable investment and ensure that new wind and solar parks can be implemented on an economically viable basis. In the United Kingdom, we are looking beyond the current delays and are focusing on the further development of our project pipeline. The first updated grid connection offers represent an important step towards greater planning certainty”, says Peter Szabo, CEO of Energiekontor AG.
