“The windfarm is a significant local investment and a further important contribution to the ongoing global transition to a renewable energy sector.”

Currently, Ardian’s portfolio in the Nordic region includes two windfarms, which are in Norway and Sweden.

OX2 Wind managing director Paul Stormoen said: “We are very pleased to have established a good business relationship with Ardian after a realisation process that was characterised by a high degree of professionalism and spirit of cooperation.

“We are now looking forward to beginning construction together with our sub-contractors. The windfarm is a significant local investment and a further important contribution to the ongoing global transition to a renewable energy sector.”

Since 2006, Ardian has built or operated 2.3GW of renewable capacity in Europe and the Americas region.

Last year in October, Ardian’s US renewables platform Skyline Renewables has reached an agreement to acquire private investment firm Starwood Energy’s 51% stake in the Texas windfarms, Horse Creek and Electra.
