Global law firm Dentons has advised VSB, the international project developer for wind energy, photovoltaics and battery storage, on its sale of 100 percent of the project rights to Miejska Górka wind farm, located in the Greater Poland Voivodeship. The rights will be acquired by TAURON Zielona Energia, part of the TAURON Group – the leading Polish energy distributor.

The planned Miejska Górka wind farm will consist of up to 53 wind turbines and is expected to be operational in 2027.
