Founded in Bremerhaven, Germany, in 1990, Energiekontor operates in the renewable energy sector as both a project developer and operator of wind and solar parks.
The company’s activities cover planning, construction and management of these parks in Germany and internationally.
Energiekontor also manages a portfolio of 41 wind and solar parks, with a total nominal power exceeding 460MW.
In July 2026, Energiekontor achieved financial close for the Kolitzheim-Herlheim solar park project in Bavaria, ensuring that funding is in place for the scheme. The company announced that this milestone allows construction of the solar park to commence.
The planned facility will have an installed capacity of approximately 11MW-peak, with commissioning expected in the first half of 2027.
