Actively manage the Strukturwandel (structural change) by turning your region's natural resources into engines of a green economy. We help you implement wind projects that generate stable tax revenue and create a sustainable future beyond traditional industry.
Invest in the backbone of Germany's industrial decarbonization. Wind park projects in Saarland offer stable returns, backed by the immense energy needs of its industry and a strong political commitment to economic and environmental transformation.
Why Wind Energy is Essential for Saarland's Future
Wind power is a vital pillar for a prosperous and sustainable future for Saarland. For this hub of innovation and industry, the expansion of wind energy is a clear strategic necessity, driving its transformation.
Powering a Revitalized Industrial Core Saarland remains a powerhouse of German industry, particularly in the automotive and steel sectors. These industries have a massive and continuous demand for reliable, green electricity to decarbonize their operations and maintain their global competitiveness. Wind power provides the 24/7 clean energy needed to secure the future of these vital economic pillars.
Driving a Successful "Strukturwandel" As Saarland transitions from its industrial past to a future centered on technology and green industry, renewable energy is the key to a successful economic transformation. Wind parks create new, high-value uses for land, generate sustainable income for communities, and are a powerful symbol of a modern, green industrial future.
Harnessing Highland Wind Potential Saarland's elevated highland regions, such as those in the Saar-Hunsrück Nature Park, offer excellent and consistent wind resources. Our expertise lies in developing wind projects in this complex terrain with the utmost ecological sensitivity, unlocking a powerful natural advantage for the state.
A Strong Political Commitment to Transformation The Saarland state government is actively driving the energy transition as a core part of its economic strategy. Its clear support for expanding renewable energy creates a stable and highly reliable framework for development and long-term investment.
VIRDI has the specialized expertise required to navigate Saarland’s planning landscape and make your wind project a success.
A VIRDI wind park is a complex undertaking that we manage for you from start to finish. We deliver a comprehensive, end-to-end service package engineered for maximum efficiency and seamless project execution.
Our process begins with a detailed analysis of your site in Saarland. We commission certified, bankable wind assessments to confirm the potential of the location, with special expertise in the complex wind flows of the Mittelgebirge highlands.
Our expert team navigates the rigorous permitting process in Saarland, managing all dialogue with local authorities, regional planning associations, and forestry offices to secure the necessary approvals in a timely and efficient manner.
We secure the complete project financing through our strong network of financial partners and manage the entire construction process. This includes everything from access roads and foundations to turbine erection and grid connection, where we prioritize regional partners from Saarland.
Our responsibility continues long after commissioning. We manage the day-to-day technical operations, maintenance, and service to ensure maximum uptime and optimize the marketing of the electricity produced, guaranteeing a reliable return for all stakeholders.
Designed for Efficiency: Modern Technology & Repowering
We focus on the latest generation of wind turbines, which are more powerful, quieter, and more efficient than ever before. For a state with a history in energy production like Saarland, Repowering is a core competency and the most intelligent path forward.
We specialize in replacing legacy wind turbines with state-of-the-art technology. This approach allows us to double or even triple the energy output on the same footprint, often with fewer turbines. It's a strategy that respects the landscape, maximizes land-use efficiency in a compact state, and ensures that established wind sites continue to contribute powerfully to Saarland's energy goals for decades to come.
We have streamlined our development process into four clear and simple phases, ensuring transparency and partnership at every step.
The journey begins when you contact us. We provide a no-cost, no-obligation check to determine if your property is located in a suitable area for wind development, based on regional planning and initial wind data.
If the site is promising, we design the optimal wind park layout, secure lease agreements with you, and expertly guide the project through the entire BImSchG permitting process, handling all complexities on your behalf.
Once all permits are secured, our project management team oversees the complete construction and grid connection of the wind park, ensuring minimal disruption and adherence to the highest safety and quality standards.
The wind park begins producing clean energy, and you start receiving your secure, indexed lease payments for decades. We manage all aspects of the operation, ensuring a truly worry-free partnership for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Suitable land is typically located within the priority areas designated by Saarland's regional planning authorities. This often includes agricultural and forested areas in the state's highlands, such as the Saar-Hunsrück Nature Park. We provide a no-cost check to see if your property qualifies.
Lease payments for prime wind energy sites are among the most lucrative sources of secondary income for landowners. Payments are tied to the turbine's revenue and provide a very high, long-term, and often inflation-indexed income, securing your financial future for decades.
None. VIRDI bears 100% of the development risk and all costs for studies, planning, permits, construction, operation, and the eventual decommissioning of the turbines. Your lease payment is pure revenue, with no financial outlay required from you at any stage.
Wind energy projects are long-term ventures. Due to the extensive expert studies and the demanding BImSchG permitting process, you should anticipate a timeframe of 5 to 7 years from initial planning to commissioning. Our expertise is focused on making this process as efficient as possible.
Repowering involves replacing old, less powerful turbines with new, highly efficient models. For a compact state like Saarland, it is the most effective way to increase clean energy production without using new land, making it a key strategy for the state's energy and economic transformation.
