欧洲银行将为奥地利风力发电场提供6300万欧元

    中国石化新闻网讯 据土耳其新闻社6月28日消息称，欧洲投资银行（EIB）周五表示，该行将提供6300万欧元用于建设和运营奥地利的两个新风力发电场，总装机产能约为43.6兆瓦。

    奥地利风能生产商Windkraft Simonsfeld AG自1990年代末以来一直在奥地利和保加利亚成功运营风电场，它将运营Prinzendorf III和Powi V风电场。

    目前，由Windkraft Simonsfeld运营的风电场的总产能达到202.5兆瓦。

    4090万欧元风电场的大部分融资将得到欧洲战略投资基金(EFSI)的担保，并将直接提供给Windkraft Simonsfeld。

    剩余的2210万欧元贷款将由Erste银行提供，欧洲投资银行提供担保，而Windkraft Simonsfeld将为风电场提供2100万欧元。

    这是Windkraft Simonsfeld第二次从欧盟投资计划资金中受益。2018年1月，欧洲战略投资基金(EFSI)与奥地利Windkraft Simonsfeld达成了4800万欧元的金融协议，在奥地利新建三个风力发电场。

    欧盟经济专员Paolo Gentiloni表示:“欧盟对Windkraft Simonsfeld的新支持将有助于使两个新风力发电场成为现实，为奥地利的数千户家庭带来清洁能源。”

    EU bank to provide €63 mln for wind farms in Austria

    The European Investment Bank, or EIB, is set to provide €63 million for the construction and operation of two new wind farms in Austria with a total capacity of approximately 43.6 megawatts (MW), according to an EIB statement on Friday.

    Austrian wind power producer Windkraft Simonsfeld AG, which has been successfully running wind farms in Austria and Bulgaria since the end of the 1990s, will operate the Prinzendorf III and Powi V wind farms.

    The overall capacity of the wind farms operated by Windkraft Simonsfeld currently amounts to 202.5 MW.

    The bulk of the financing for the wind farms of €40.9 million will be backed by a guarantee from the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) and will go directly to Windkraft Simonsfeld.

    The remaining loan of €22.1 million will be provided by Erste Bank and guaranteed by the EIB, while Windkraft Simonsfeld will contribute €21 million for the wind farms.

    This is the second time Windkraft Simonsfeld has benefited from EU investment program funding. Under the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), a €48 million financial agreement was made possible in January 2018 to build three new wind farms with Windkraft Simonsfeld in Austria.

    “This new EU support for Windkraft Simonsfeld will help to make two new wind farms a reality, bringing clean energy to thousands more households in Austria,” said Paolo Gentiloni, the European Commissioner for the Economy.
