Blåbergsliden wind farm is built on Holmen's land outside Skellefteå. The 26 wind turbines are estimated to have an annual energy production of just over 400 GWh, which corresponds to electricity for approximately 100,000 households each year.
Our wind farm in Blåbergsliden was put into operation in the spring of 2022. The 26 wine power mills can supply around 100,000 homes with renewable electricity every year.
At Blåbergsliden in Västerbotten, environmental permits were obtained in 2016 and the production potential is estimated at 400 GWh / year. The judgment was appealed but won legal force in May 2018.
The work in the field began on 4 April 2020 and the facility was inaugurated on 23 May 2022.
Vindbonus is a fund from which the local community can apply for financial support.
The idea behind it all is that wind power should be of benefit to the countryside and population where wind resources are utilized.
Funds from the wind bonus can be applied for by organizations, companies and associations that have a purpose where the money is used for the local community in areas such as:
All applicants must withstand review and meet the values in Holmen's code of conduct. Holmen does not give money to political or religious organizations or companies.
Compensation can only be applied for for purposes and activities in the vicinity of our Blåbergsliden wind farm.
The application must be written in an email to the email address blabergsliden@holmen.com during the application period 1 September to 31 October 2022.
A decision on allocation will be made at the beginning of December for payment during January next year.
You can apply for an amount as small or large as possible, but not exceeding the total amount per year, which is a fixed compensation of SEK 5,000 per wind turbine. This means a total of 130,000 SEK / year as Blåbergsliden has 26 wind turbines.
A purpose or association can apply for and receive funding for several years.
The use of allocated funds must be reported through, for example, photos and receipts.
How the cost report is to be done must be stated in the application. Lack of accounting can lead to a repayment obligation.
A warm welcome with your application!
Sustainable wind power
The production of wind power only draws on the natural forces of the wind – no fossil emissions and no impact on the climate.
