Ballycadden Wind Farm is located in County Wexford, Ireland and consists of nine wind turbines with a total capacity of 24.2 MW. With an annual production of approximately 66.9 GWh, it can supply electricity to around 14,000 Irish households each year.
When we acquired the farm, it marked the start of our expansion into the international market, as it is our very first farm outside the Nordic region.
"We are proud to add Ballycadden Wind Farm to our portfolio. It is a clear demonstration
of the commitment of us and our owners to expand our business internationally."
- Peter Wesslau, CEO of Rabbalshede Kraft.
Ireland is a leading market for renewable energy investment in Europe thanks to a positive outlook for electricity demand, stable renewable energy support schemes and strong political support for achieving renewable energy targets. Wind power generated 35% of Ireland's electricity in 2023, in Sweden the corresponding figure was around 21%.
Rabbalshede Kraft co-owns the farm with nine local landowners. Operation and maintenance is handled by Ireland's EnergyPro.

We want to help drive the development of efficient and sustainable solutions forward. That's why we're looking at how we can develop our parks from pure wind farms to energy parks where, in addition to wind power, we also add other technologies.

That's why we're looking at how we can develop our parks from pure wind farms to energy parks where, in addition to wind power, we also add other technologies. Since 2013, we have owned and operated the Årjäng SV wind farm with eight wind turbines and an annual production of 111 GWh. The farm will now be complemented with a battery to store the energy.
In connection with our existing wind farm Årjäng NV in Värmland, we are planning to add a battery facility of 10 MW / 10 MWh.
The plant will mainly be used to optimise our own wind farm and to deliver support services to Svenska kraftnät. This way, we are helping to ensure the balance of the power grid and make future electricity production more reliable.
We plan to submit a building permit application in early autumn 2024, and if all goes well, the battery plant could be commissioned in early 2026.
In Femstenaberg in the municipality of Strömstad, our very first energy park combines wind power and battery storage.
In October 2025 we successfully commissioned our first large-scale Battery Energy Storage System ("BESS") facility in our existing wind farm Femstenaberg – a 20 MW / 20 MWh installation. The battery will primarily be used for support services for Svenska Kraftnät (the authority responsible for Sweden's transmission system for electricity) and optimisation in our own park.

In Holje, just outside Olofström in Blekinge, Rabbalshede Kraft is planning to build a 3 MW solar park.
When completed, the park's annual production is expected to be about 4.2 GWh/year. Since the park is located in southern Sweden, it will contribute an important addition of renewable electricity in electricity price area 4, which currently has a deficit in electricity production.
We plan to start construction already in 2025, keep an eye out here for updates on the project.

During autumn of 2020, Rabbalshede Kraft initiated a project that will provide 100% green hydrogen with the help of wind power. The goal is to open new possibilities for knowledge exchange and technology development for sustainable production of green hydrogen. The project has received grants from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and the initiative “Klimatklivet” which support local climate impact investments.
