About the project
OX2 has completed the construction of the Wysoka wind farm. The company was involved in the investment as a turnkey developer for investor Ingka Investments.
The wind farm consists of 11 turbines with a total capacity of 62.5 MW. The estimated annual energy production will be 180 GW, covering the electricity needs of nearly 90,000 households. Nordex N149 turbines with a capacity of 5.5-5.7 MW have been installed on the farm. The total height of each windmill reaches almost 200 metres, comprising 125-metre towers and 72.4-metre blades. The project was finalised for operation in 2024.
OX2 is responsible for the technical and commercial management of the project.

Sustainability
Sustainability
OX2 and our suppliers are guests in the local communities. For us, it is extremely important to create dialogue with and show respect for the people who live and work in the local area. This includes transparent communication, creating local jobs, business sector development or financial grants through community funds or property tax, depending on the market and conditions in the area.
The expansion of renewable energy should not come at the expense of nature, and it is not enough for us to mitigate climate change. We have long worked to minimize our negative impact on nature and are now taking decisive action towards our goal of nature-positive wind and solar farms by 2030.
Our projects are sustainable by design, from early planning to construction and management.
Wysoka
In the Wysoka Municipality, we are actively involved in environmental education and activities in the field of biodiversity protection. During the construction of this project, it was a priority to use wood obtained during road repairs. We have focused on the sustainable use of this resource, in a cooperation with local experts, creating nesting boxes for birds and bats, insect hotels and hedgehog houses. We involved pupils from the local school in the construction of houses. During the event, children also sowed a flower meadow, which will be a habitat for pollinators.
Accessibility
Accessibility
It is possible to hike, hunt, or pick berries and mushrooms in the wind farm area, with respect to the area's warning signs and prevailing weather conditions. Caution should be observed in certain weather conditions. It is unsafe to be near the wind turbines during thunderstorms and when there is a risk of ice or snow falling from the wind turbines. Therefore, please pay attention to the local weather conditions. Ice accumulation on wind turbines occurs at temperatures just above 0 °C and colder, especially during snowfall or when the turbine is covered with fog or clouds. A safety distance of at least 400 m should be maintained to each wind turbine during these conditions.
