Wind4Bio - Study Visit to Laflora Wind Farm

The search for suitable locations for wind parks is in the spotlight of European renewable energy policies. Last week, the EUKI-funded #Wind4Bio project arranged a study tour to a future wind park site in Zemgale Region, Latvia.
Our visit included a trip to Laflora Latvija, a local peat company, where we learned about their plan to transform former peat extraction fields into a green industrial area. This development would involve a 90-110 MW wind park along with 88 MW of agrovoltaics, greenhouses, and energy-intensive production facilities.
