The Swedish seaport's two 120-metre-tall turbines have started producing energy, expected to generate some 15 million kilowatt-hours per year, i.e., three times more than the Port of Trelleborg consumes.
"With the setup of our own wind farm, the Port of Trelleborg is self-sufficient in energy production, which will cover the seaport's future demand for, among others, shore power supply for berthed vessels," the Port of Trelleborg highlighted in a LinkedIn post.
The excess energy will be fed to the grid.
The Port of Trelleborg also houses a photovoltaic system that spans over 2,200 square metres, producing 0.5m kWh/year.
