It is focussed on the further development and extension of wind energy usage as well as on the promotion of the wind energy idea within the entire Baltic Sea Region.
Interreg III B Project:
Main topic and aim of the project
Technological and planning know-how and experiences especially in Germany and Denmark stand against a growing lack of wind turbine sites in this countries. Little experiences, but growing interest and huge natural potentials in Poland, Finland and the Baltic Republics. First projects of Western-European companies in Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Russia face enormous difficulties, caused by an insecure financial situation, the lack of standards, the lack of relevant laws and a difficult co-operation with authorities.
Main project ideas
Improvement of the wind-energy-conditions in less developed areas (image, spatial planning, law, economy)
Promotion of the wind-energy-idea all over the BSR
Initiating international co-operations for an exchange of knowledge, know-how and experiences regarding public work, spatial development, technology, law and economy ... more
