For around three decades, we have been making an effective contribution to implementing the energy transition from our headquarters in Itzehoe (pronounced Itzehooo) in northern Germany. Together with our employees, customers and the members of our
members of our cooperative. Nice to have you here.
"All members have an active voice in the cooperative and thus help shape the course of Prokon."
Katharina Beyer, Board Member of Prokon eG
Prokon New Energy Spain, S.L.
With a planning office for photovoltaic open spaces, Prokon has been active in the Spanish capital since 2021. From Madrid, project possibilities across Spain are being assessed and initiated. In the medium term, hybrid power plant concepts involving wind, PV, storage, and hydrogen are also conceivable there.
Prokon New Energy Poland Sp. z o. o.
Since 2007, Prokon Poland has been active in the planning, operation, and maintenance of renewable energy sources from Gdansk. The 7-member team has a wide portfolio of projects in development as well as their own wind farms throughout Poland. Eight employees are responsible for on-site service and maintenance.

Four business areas form the pillars of the Prokon Group. Move across the fields and you will learn more about them.
Project development
Planning, construction and operation of wind and solar parks. For us and others.
We are not only the leading German developer and operator of onshore wind farms with a total of 400 installations in 71 European wind parks – we also build solar parks, drive the use of various battery storage systems, and are active in the field of biomethane. Regional proximity, close collaboration with all project stakeholders, and local contracting are important to us. We pay fair lease income to landowners and their contracting partners, and also offer citizen communities the opportunity to plan, build, and hand over their project on a turnkey basis.
Service & Maintenance
Our Professional Wind Service: Professionals working around the clock.
The smooth operation of wind turbines is also ensured by us with our own service personnel. For this purpose, we have set up a total of five bases near the wind parks, which are reachable around the clock. The manufacturer-independent "Professional Wind Teams" also carry out remote data monitoring and necessary maintenance work. The expertise of the experts, who have around 30 years of experience and ensure an operational performance of 97% at our own plants, is also offered to other wind farm operators.
Green electricity
Our Prokon wind power: 100% clean and self-generated
"As a green energy provider, we supply our private and business customers - currently around 20,000 households - with self-produced electricity that comes 100% from renewable sources. This is also confirmed by the independent and non-profit association EnergieVision, which has awarded us the rare premium certification 'ok-power-plus Seal' for our electricity product. In addition, we are increasingly planning, building, and operating solar parks. It is important for us that we work completely independently of large energy companies and major investors."
Cooperative
Effective Together: The Cooperative
As one of the largest German energy cooperatives, together with around 40,000 members, we make a significant contribution to the energy transition - and benefit from it. In recent years, we have been able to pay out dividends between 3 and 5 percent to our members. The principle we follow is: we are a community, pursuing a common goal, and treat each other as equals. Every voice counts the same, regardless of the amount of ownership. Transparency is also a must: we consistently publish all relevant key performance indicators about our performance.
What does our collective approach look like? What is needed to efficiently harness renewable energies? And what role do the people who are with us play? All of this has been illustrated and summarised in our "Prokon Way".
In our Prokon Stories, we give dedicated individuals who work tirelessly for our cause a face. In the entertaining video contributions, cooperative members, employees, mayors, and many others are brought into focus – we have also prepared easy-to-understand explainer videos for you. Lights, camera, action for the people and topics that make the success of Prokon possible!
