Project Profile: Kail wind farm is being built in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, around 50 km southwest of the city of Koblenz. On the high plateau near the Moselle, RWE is building three wind turbines with a total capacity of 12.9 MW. The company received the go-ahead for the project from the Federal Network Agency in February.

RWE plans to commission the new Kail wind farm at the end of 2025. The local communities will benefit directly from this, as RWE will voluntarily pay out 0.2 cents per KWh generated. As well as the lease payments for the land, the local communities can expect additional income of up to EUR 60,000 (USD65,310) per year. The wind farm will supply the equivalent of around 7,500 households per year with green electricity.
