E.ON, Credit Suisse to build 475MW wind farm in Sweden

E.ON and Credit Suisse Energy Infrastructure Partners (CSEIP) will build one of Europe’s largest onshore wind farms in Northern Sweden with a capacity of 475MW that is to be equipped with turbines from German manufacturer Nordex.

A fund advised by CSEIP will hold 80% of the joint venture, while E.ON will build and operate the about €500m ($567.6m) wind farm under a long-term O&M agreement and keep a 20% stake.
