Wind power plants: the best locations in Switzerland

Good locations for wind power

28.08.08 - We are supporting a Swiss energy supply company in identifying the best locations for wind power plants.

A leading Swiss energy supply company has been operating wind power plants since the 1990s. In order to reinforce and strengthen its market position, the area of wind power is now to be expanded against the background of the new general energy policy conditions.

Switzerland is densely populated and so potential wind power locations must be evaluated in detail and selected with care. EBP is supporting the energy supply company with the following services:

• Drawing up the key criteria for the evaluation of locations.
• Identification of the best locations having regard to energy production, impact on the landscape.
• Feasibility considerations having regard to the legal, political and social issues and acceptance.
• Identification of possible project partners and building up networks
