The cooperative Current Members area Projects Contact Press Virtual meeting of the energy cooperative BürgerWIND Westfalen pays out a five percent dividend again Special times require special measures: Due to the corona pandemic, the general assembly of the Energiegenossenschaft BürgerWind Westfalen eG had to take place this year virtually via video conference, instead of the usual in the Schützenhalle in Büren-Wewelsburg. The more than 1,100 members of the cooperative had been asked in advance in writing by circular letter to decide on the annual financial statements, the distribution of the dividend and the discharge of the board of directors. Around 78 percent of the members contacted took part in the written vote and voted for a dividend of 5 percent without dissenting. The annual financial statements and the discharge of the board of directors also took place without votes against. Because the election of the chairman of the supervisory board was also pending this year, a solution had to be found that would allow the members to vote personally. For this purpose, a video conference was convened that the cooperative members could dial into. Result: The previous chairman of the supervisory board, Hubert Böddeker, was confirmed in office for another three years without dissenting votes. Böddeker then thanked the board for the smooth process and for the technical implementation of the video conference. Insgesamt blickt die BürgerWIND Westfalen auf ein gutes Geschäftsjahr 2019 zurück, da es laut Vorstandsmitglied Dr. Felix Rubitschek auch ein hervorragendes Windjahr war. „Leider kommt es bei viel Wind aber vermehrt zu zwangsweisen Abschaltungen der Windkraftanlagen durch den Netzbetreiber, weil die Netze den produzierten Strom nicht abtransportieren können. Hier müssen im Sinne der Energiewende dringend mehr Netzkapazitäten her.“, forderte Rubitschek. Die BürgerWind Westfalen eG ist die finanzstärkste Energiegenossenschaft in NRW und betreibt mit ihrem Kapital von 21 Millionen Euro zwei eigene Windkraftanlagen und ist an weiteren neun Windparks im Kreis Paderborn beteiligt. Weitere Mitglieder können derzeit leider nicht aufgenommen werden.
