Mercedes-Benz has announced that it plans to install a wind farm at its test track in Papenburg, Germany.
The firm has awarded energy park developer UKA a long-term contract to erect approximately 20 wind turbines by 2025, pending authorisation from relevant regulatory bodies. The turbines will offer a capacity of more than 120MW, said to be sufficient to cover close to 20% of the annual electricity requirements of Mercedes-Benz Group AG in Germany.
The Papenburg test track has served an an integral part of Mercedes-Benz's research and development activities since 1998, and will now join the firm's growing green power portfolio.
Mercedes states that its wholly-owned production plants worldwide have been operating with a neutral CO2 balance, while 45% of its total energy consumption in production is covered by electricity from renewable sources. It additionally intends to increase the share of renewable energies in the total energy consumption of its own production locations to 70% by 2030, and to have all its production plants worldwide operate wholly with renewable energy and no CO2 emissions by 2039.
