Aargau's First Major Wind Farm Set to Boost Winter Power

The Aargau canton is set to see its first major wind farm, the Lindenberg project, which could significantly boost regional and seasonal electricity production. The Windpark Lindenberg AG is spearheading this initiative, backed by the Aargau Farmers' Association (BVA) after thorough review.

Spanning about one hectare, the wind farm will be carefully planned to minimise disruption to agriculture. If decommissioned in the future, the land will be restored. The BVA, which prioritises secure energy supply for agriculture, has agreed to no further compensation measures on agricultural land in future projects.

The Lindenberg wind farm is expected to generate over 25 GWh of electricity annually, with a substantial two-thirds produced in winter. This makes it a project of national significance, aligning with the BVA's strategic goal of promoting renewable energy.

The Lindenberg wind farm, organised by Windpark Lindenberg AG and supported by the BVA, is poised to contribute significantly to Switzerland's renewable energy goals. Its strategic location and seasonal output make it a notable addition to the country's energy landscape.
