Windkraft Forstenrieder Park

About

Founded in 2020, Windkraft Forstenrieder Park is a co-op headquartered in Pullach i. Isartal, Germany specializing in Wind.

Windkraft Forstenrieder Park is a citizen-owned wind energy project located in the Forstenrieder Park area of Bavaria, comprising six wind turbines with a combined capacity of 33 MW. The project is structured as a limited partnership (GmbH & Co. KG) with ownership distributed among four municipalities (Baierbrunn, Neuried, Pullach, Schäftlarn), two energy cooperatives (BENG eG and Energie-Genossenschaft Fünfseenland eG), and Innovative Energie für Pullach GmbH. The wind park generates approximately 60 million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, sufficient to supply approximately 20,000 households with renewable energy. A key feature is direct citizen participation through cooperative membership and investment opportunities, generating local economic value. The project incorporates comprehensive environmental protection measures, including protection for bat populations through shutdown algorithms, bird surveys, and reforestation of 2.5 hectares. Construction began in early 2026 with official groundbreaking on February 23, 2026. Citizen investment capital of €2.4 million was fully subscribed within 48 hours, demonstrating strong local support.
