Development, planning, realisation and operation of wind farms and other plants from renewable resources. With a regional presence and fair and social participation projects.
The MLK Group stands for a citizen-centred and regional energy transition. Always with local people in mind, MLK plans, builds and operates wind farms, solar parks and biomass power plants - and always with a direct presence in the regions.
Whether at the main locations in Erkelenz (NRW), Berlin, Hamburg and Jacobsdorf or with regional offices directly at the projects: MLK is always personally approachable and visible to local residents, landowners and municipalities.
Regional value creation and participation
MLK sees itself as a long-term partner to the municipalities. It remains permanently involved in its projects and thus ensures that added value remains in the region. Special attention is paid to the financial participation of the municipalities. In 2025, more than 460,000 euros will be distributed to municipalities in the vicinity of MLK wind and solar parks in accordance with § 6 of the EEG. This figure was already more than 200,000 euros in 2024. MLK expects payouts to continue to rise in the coming years and could reach around 750,000 euros annually.
Citizen participation without hurdles
People benefit from the plants in their neighbourhood. Thanks to MLK's diverse participation models, this goes even further. One clever offer: neighbours of the wind farms receive discounted green electricity exclusively - without any equity investment or risk.
Sustainable Growth
With a total installed capacity of around 780 MW, MLK is one of the most active players in the industry. Flagship projects such as the Jacobsdorf combined-cycle power plant show how wind and solar energy can be intelligently combined. The project pipeline promises further growth and currently comprises around 2.5 gigawatts.
Since it was founded in 2005, MLK has established itself as an experienced and reliable partner for the local energy transition. With a growing number of employees and a clear commitment to a regional presence, the company remains a driving force for a sustainable energy future in the regions.
