Eolus Vind AB – your wind power partner

Eolus Vind AB is one of the leading actors in planning, projecting and establishing wind power plants in Sweden. Eolus was founded in 1990 with the purpose to own and operate wind turbines. Initiator was Bengt Simmingsköld, who is still working in the company. He has worked with wind power projects since the late 70’s.

The first project was two Vestas 225 kW wind turbines on the island Öland, that Eolus built in 1991. Since the start Eolus Vind AB has established more than 290 wind turbines. Eolus has also been active in projects in Finland, Estonia and Poland.

During the years Eolus have sold off most of the wind turbines established by the company.

Today Eolus operates as:

• Developer of wind power projects
• Owner of wind turbines
• Consultants in developing wind power projects, operating wind farms, financing and administration.
   

Eolus currently owns 28 wind turbines. The annual production is estimated at 86 GW= 86,000,000 kWh, equivalent to supplying electricity to households for 43,000 people. Two of the turbines are located in Estonia and the rest in Sweden. One of the objectives for the board is to increase the wind power capacity owned by Eolus with another 40 MW until 2011.
