The wind farm will power up approximately 55,000 Italian households. Speaking on the commissioning, Katja Wünschel, CEO RWE Renewables Europe & Australia said, “The commissioning of Mondonuovo wind farm is an important milestone in our journey to support Italy in building a clean, stable and cost-effective energy supply. A big thank you to the RWE team, the local community and all companies and partners involved. Now our Italian renewables fleet can supply more than 500,000 homes.
