Revolutionary wind turbine in Lower Saxony: Modern freedom for residents!

in Lower Saxony, things are going well when it comes to renewable energies! On June 18, 2025, the Braun Windurbinen GmbH The successful installation of a new Antaris 12 kW wind complex. This brings a breath of fresh air for local energy supply and is very popular.

The demanding wind system was installed with a mast height of 12 meters. A special highlight of this technology is that it could be built without a building permit - a real profit for the operators! In addition to wind power mode, the system in the hybrid system is coupled with a photovoltaic system and is supported by an intelligent battery memory. Remote monitoring and shutdown are also not to be neglected, which makes use more secure and efficient.

financial advantages for residents

not only the technology is enthusiastic. The red-green state government has set itself the goal of reaching climate neutrality by 2040 and is therefore planning a new law that strengthens the financial benefit for residents. ndr reports that residents should benefit within a radius of 2.5 kilometers by newly built wind power and photovoltaic systems. This includes not only lower electricity prices, but also direct payments and the possibility of participating in citizens' energy cooperatives.

The planned law should also benefit from the future wind power projects. It states that operators pay 0.1 cents per petrol hour of kilowatt hours to residents, while the acceptance levy for municipalities is 0.2 cents. This can generate annual income of around 30,000 euros per wind turbine. These funds should also be used for social projects, nature conservation or culture, which could increase acceptance among the population.

Lower Saxony remains pioneer in the energy transition

Lower Saxony is already a leader in producing electricity from renewable energies. In 2023, more electricity from renewables was created for the first time than used up - a trend -setting success! Niedersachsen.de clarifies that the state government is planning to extend a significant extent for wind turbines by 2032. At the moment, 2.2 percent of the state area are available, and in the future up to 4 percent will be used, which means a significant doubling.

For the future, it is clear that wind power still has a lot of potential. Whether residents, municipalities or operators - everyone can benefit from this development. With a good hand for sustainable projects, Lower Saxony sets standards for the entire Federal Republic. It remains exciting how the wind power landscape will continue to develop!
