Eolus creates value at every level of project develop- ment, establishment and operation of renewable energy facilities. We offer attractive and competitive investment opportunities in the Nordic region, Baltic countries and the US to both local and international investors. Since the company’s inception in 1990, Eolus has been involved in the construction of more than 540 wind turbines with a capacity of nearly 930 MW. The Eolus Group currently has customer contracts for asset management services with an installed capacity of more than 400 MW. Eolus Vind AB has approximately 8,200 shareholders. Eolus’s Class B share is traded on Nasdaq Stockholm, Small Cap.

The increased interest towards the wind energy market has led to a more competitive environment where it is crucial for a project developer to select projects most likely to succeed, in terms of profitability, among alternatives on the market. To enable such selection, an evaluation process is often applied. Furthermore, traditional evaluation processes are often performed at completion of a project where an early indication of a project’s potential profitability is often missing (Samset & Christensen, 2015). At the early phase of a wind energy project the multiple factors influencing the project’s outcome are often conflicting and contain high level of uncertainty and the evaluation process becomes complex (Kumar et al., 2017).

An analysis of the Energy Payback Ratio (EPR) has been conducted, with special attention being paid to what happens when a wind turbine is placed in different environments (i.e. the open field vs. the forest), and what happens to these scenarios when recycling is applied to the energy balance. The results of the research demonstrate that the EPR values are highly dependent on the prerequisites chosen. It was found that the wind turbine placed in the open field had more favourable EPR values than the wind turbine in the forest, a result that is dependent upon the road being shorter and this scenario being placed closer to the existing electrical infrastructure.

  • How Have Ecotaxes Worked in Germany?
    FEASTA_Review_MAIN 10/18/04 11:56 AM Page 130 The Irish Government has abandoned its plan to reduce the country’s greenhouse gas emissions with an ecotax on the carbon content of fossil fuels which was to have been introduced in 2005. In Germany, similar taxes created over 60,000 new jobs but reduced CO2 emissions by less than 1% in the first two years. This indicates that Irish carbon tax rates would have needed to be very steep for the country to avoid paying hefty fines to the EU because it failed to keep within its Kyoto target. How have ecotaxes worked in Germany? Hans Diefenbacher Volker Teichert Stefan Wilhelmy Dr. Hans Diefenbacher (economics), Dr. Volker Teichert (economics), and Stefan Wilhelmy, M.A. (political science) are senior researchers at the Protestant Institute for Interdisciplinary Research (FEST) in Heidelberg, Germany. Hans Diefenbacher, a member of Feasta, also teaches economics at the University of Kassel. n 2000, Germany released 858 million tonnes amount of the excess is rising.

  • News Release from Vestas Wind Systems A/S Home Furnishing Giant IKEA Invests in 90 MW of Vestas Wind Power
    News release from Vestas Wind Systems A/S Aarhus, 27 June 2012 Page 1 of 2 Home furnishing giant IKEA invests in 90 MW of Vestas wind power Project of 30 V90-3.0 MW turbines is IKEA’s biggest investment in wind to date. The deal testifies that carbon conscious companies such as IKEA increasingly achieve their financial objectives while at the same time reducing their carbon footprint and securing a sustainable energy supply. Vestas has received an order for 30 units of the V90-3.0 MW wind turbine for the Glötesvålen project in the municipality of Härjedalen, Sweden. The order is placed by Swedish developer and long standing Vestas customer, O2. Delivery and installation of the turbines is scheduled to be completed in January 2015. Whereas O2 will be responsible for the development, construction and operation of the wind farm, it will be owned by Swedish home furnishing giant IKEA. The Glötesvålen project is IKEA’s largest, single investment in wind to date, bringing the company’s fleet of Vestas turbines to more than 115 MWs across Sweden, France, UK, and Denmark. It is IKEA’s goal to get all of its energy from renewable sources and the 30 Vestas turbines is a major step on that journey: When in operation in 2015, IKEA expects renewable energy to amount to 70-80 per cent of the Group’s global energy usage. In Sweden alone, the investment will make IKEA self-sufficient with electricity. Carbon conscious companies-segment is long-term focus area for Vestas The Glötesvålen project is yet another example of how carbon conscious companies are stepping up their active involvement in wind energy.
