About the Project
Aneo is developing the Långshyttan wind power project in line with the plans and guidelines of Hedemora Municipality and Region Dalarna. The project is at an early stage, and consultation with the authorities was carried out in early 2026. Further dialogue with affected stakeholders will be part of the continued planning and environmental impact assessment.
The wind farm is planned with up to 18 wind turbines rated at 8–10 MW per turbine and a maximum height of up to 290 meters. At the current scale, expected production is around 357 GWh annually, equivalent to the electricity consumption of approximately 71,000 single-family homes.
Possible contributions to the local community
2.6 million kroner annually to households
Estimated revenue sharing to nearby homeowners through proposed local compensation schemes.
357 GWh of renewable energy per year
Equivalent to around 10% of the expected increase in electricity demand in Dalarna by 2030.
1% of revenues to local initiatives
Allocation for businesses and associations, equivalent to around NOK 66.5 million over the project’s lifetime.
Why Aneo?
The renewable energy group Aneo was established in the fall of 2022 through a collaboration between the energy company TrønderEnergi and the investment fund HitecVision. We have just over 180 employees, with our headquarters in Trondheim.
Aneo is built on 70 years of experience in the development and operation of large power projects. Aneo owns and operates 13 wind farms and two solar power plants in Norway, Sweden, and Finland, with production in all three countries. Additionally, the group holds a stake in Sunna Group AB, which develops, builds, and operates solar power plants in Sweden. Aneo also has several subsidiaries in areas such as energy services, mobility, and development.
We have extensive experience collaborating with municipalities, where we have built strong relationships with both residents, politicians, and the administration. Together with local authorities, we are creating the energy solutions of the future, with a focus on safety and presence in the local community.
One of the things that sets us apart from most of our competitors is that when Aneo seeks to build a wind power plant in a Norwegian municipality, it's with long-term intentions in mind, not to sell the project or power plant onward. We invest to build, build to own, and own to operate. This means that we are here now, during any construction process, and of course, every single day throughout the power plant's lifespan.
Local ripple effects
More jobs
The development of wind power creates regional and local jobs during both the construction and operational phases, as well as indirect employment in services and the supply chain.
Local value creation
The project will, as far as possible, make use of local and regional labor. This may increase activity for accommodation, transport, services, and suppliers.
Funds for local development
Community funds can contribute to energy efficiency, support small businesses, and help develop local initiatives.
Support for the industry's transformation
Dalarna has a significant need for power related to industrial transformation. Increased access to renewable energy can help strengthen the region's competitiveness.
Climate and Environmental Contribution
Wind power can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to increased electrification of industry, transport, and society.
About the planning area
The project area is located north of Långshyttan in Hedemora Municipality in the southeastern part of Dalarna. The area consists of forested hills with moderately steep to steep terrain. Several lakes are nearby, including Edsken, Fullen, and Grycken to the east, as well as Lången and Amungen to the south.
The area has good wind conditions, existing forest roads, and access to grid connection. Large parts of the land consist of production forest, and landowners have expressed a positive attitude toward the project. Any future development could also contribute to improved infrastructure and greater accessibility in the area.
