Revenue model

1. Green electricity sales to Vattenfall: All green electricity produced by Windpark Zeewolde's 83 turbines (approximately 870,000 MWh per year) is sold to Vattenfall under a 15-year power purchase agreement.
2. Battery storage services (Batterijpark Zeewolde): Battery parks (31-33 MW) store surplus wind energy and deliver it during peak demand or grid stress, providing grid congestion management and flexibility services on the electricity market. Revenue comes from market optimization without subsidies.
3. Long-duration energy storage (Elestor partnership): 20 MW long-duration hydrogen-iron flow battery storage system (expected 200-800 MWh capacity) to be connected to the Vogelweg High Voltage System, reducing curtailment and enabling better utilization of wind energy.
4. Green hydrogen production and sales: A 15 MW hydrogen plant converts wind electricity into green hydrogen for use by local agricultural businesses, trucking companies, and companies with heavy equipment, replacing fossil diesel. Hydrogen is transported in 10-meter gas cylinders to customers. Future expansion to 75 MW second plant planned.

Core offering

Windpark Zeewolde B.V. operates a 320 MW onshore wind farm consisting of 83 Vestas turbines in the Zeewolde area (Flevoland, Netherlands), generating approximately 870,000 MWh of green electricity annually. All electricity is sold to Vattenfall under a 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA). The company is expanding into an integrated energy hub (Energiehub Zeewolde) adding a 31 MW/65 MWh battery storage facility (Batterijpark Zeewolde), a 20 MW long-duration hydrogen-iron flow battery (with Elestor), and a 15 MW green hydrogen production plant (H2 Park Zeewolde).

Product overview

Windpark Zeewolde B.V. operates a portfolio of renewable energy products centered on the 320 MW Windpark Zeewolde wind farm (83 Vestas turbines), supplemented by battery storage systems (Batterijpark Zeewolde at 31 MW and Elestor long-duration storage at 20 MW), and hydrogen production (H2 Park Zeewolde at 15 MW). All facilities are interconnected via the Vogelweg High Voltage System. The company is rebranding as 'Energiehub Zeewolde' to reflect this integrated energy hub approach combining wind generation, storage, and hydrogen production. The wind farm itself is 100% community-owned by 200+ local farmers, residents, and entrepreneurs.

Partnerships

Ten partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• ElestorcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 8 July 2026Windpark Zeewolde and Elestor entered a partnership for phased realization of a large-scale hydrogen-iron flow battery at the wind park. The 20 MW system (10-40 hour storage, 200-800 MWh) will be connected to the Vogelweg High Voltage System. Elestor will complete its last pre-commercial unit next year to demonstrate the technology, followed by commercial-scale battery. Target operational date: 2031.
• ECHT-regie in transitiecoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 17 March 2025Windpark Zeewolde and ECHT-regie in transitie have joined hands to manage the decommissioning (amovering/sanering) of 166 old wind turbines in the Zeewolde area by the end of 2026. The partnership aims to decommission as many wind turbines as possible in a circular manner.
• EnecocoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 26 November 2024Eneco is responsible for market optimization of the battery, reducing grid load by largely charging from wind production. This partnership enables commercial operation of the battery storage facility.
• Rolls-Royce Power SystemscoreTechnology or Integration · 18 July 2024Rolls-Royce Power Systems builds the Batterijpark Zeewolde megabattery park (33 MW system, 2-hour batteries). Rolls-Royce delivers the large-scale battery storage system for the project.
