Renerga in Lithuania wants to increase wind energy production
"(Lithuania's) new National Energy Independence Strategy provides for
the development of wind energy. In light of this and in keeping with our
company's long-term goals, we are planning to increase wind energy
production," Renerga CEO Mindaugas Juodis said in an interview
with the paper.
"We are also currently considering expansion not only within
Lithuania, but also outside of it. We do not confine ourselves solely to wind
energy. We are also interested in other types of energy projects," he
said.
Renerga owns a new
7.2-megawatt wind farm in the eastern district of Anyksciai, hydro power
facilities in Pastrevys and Kavarskas, and 50-MW wind farms in Benaiciai,
in the western part of the country, as well as an experimental 6-kilowatt wind
power facility and an experimental 4.2-kW solar power plant.
