Stokkfjellet wind farm 2
under public consultation
New turbines and battery at Stokkfjellet
Stokkfjellet, Selbu
Within the concession area for Stokkfjellet Wind Farm, there is an area in the southern part that has not been utilized, while there is also additional available grid capacity at the Nea transformer station. This technically makes it possible to install more turbines within the concession boundaries and use the same access road and power line as the existing wind farm.
Estimated commissioning
2028
Expected Annual Production
143.2 GWh
Estimated Installed Capacity
54 MW
Number of turbines
Up to 9
About the Project
Why an expansion of Stokkfjellet wind farm?
The Stokkfjellet wind farm was completed by the end of 2021, based on the terms of the legally binding license received from the OED in 2017. In the spring of 2026, Aneo applied to build up to 9 new turbines within the same concession boundaries. At the same time, an application for area zoning of Stokkfjellet was submitted to Selbu municipality. We believe the project is sound because it:
Contributes with new renewable energy production and increased flexibility in the power system.
Expansion of the existing transformer building.
Reuses the existing access road and power line.
Contributes to increased municipal revenues of approximately NOK 10 million per year.
The project was released for public consultation by NVE and Selbu municipality on June 5, 2026. We welcome feedback on the application and the area zoning plan. NVE coordinates the consultation in cooperation with the municipality. All documents related to the license application can be viewed on NVE's website. Feedback should be submitted via a dedicated form on NVE's website, or by email to nve@nve.no (mark with "Høringsuttalelse 202308052" in the subject line).
The consultation deadline is August 28, 2026.
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.
Technical information about the project
The entire planning area covers an area of approximately 6.1 km² in Selbu municipality in Trøndelag, of which Stokkfjellet 2 wind farm covers approximately 2.5 km². In the existing park, 21 wind turbines are installed, with an output of 4.2 MW per turbine, a hub height of 112m, and a rotor diameter of 136m. In the southern part, there is room for up to 9 new turbines.
New power production resulting from the 9 new turbines is approximately 143.2 GWh, which corresponds to the electricity consumption of about 9,000 households.
What needs to be built are internal roads and cables up to each individual turbine, foundations, hardstands, as well as the assembly of the turbines and an expansion of the existing transformer substation. An application has also been submitted to build a battery of up to 22 MW/44 MWh, which will provide reserve power to the wind farm and supporting services to the power system.
